Other ideas for your pie maker.

Note: When using a non-pastry base in your pie maker it will be necessary to season the plates with a little oil, butter or margarine each time to prevent sticking.

Using bread.

Bread can be used as a substitute for pastry. The best results are achieved using sandwich bread. Avoid using toast style bread as it is too thick.

Cut the pie tops and bases using the cutters and trim the crusts.

Spread one side of the bread with butter or margarine. Make the pies as previously instructed, with the buttered side of the bread on the outside to prevent sticking. Cook for 6 minutes.

Hint: Avoid using liquid fillings as they tend to make the bread soggy.
