Peach Pie Cups

Kitchen Princess is a manga by Natsumi Ando and Miyuki Kobayashi in which every chapter is named after a dish. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of that dish, not the recipe from the book.

A whole peach pie takes over an hour to bake and longer to cool. Baking the crust on its own in little cups means it is ready in minutes, and every cup has its own crispy edge.

Make it a learning moment: count the circles you can cut from one crust, then try to fit the scraps together for more.
