Quebec-Style Mini Meat Pies

Servings: 8
Preparation: 40 minutes
Cooking: 75 minutes

You know that rich, spiced meaty flavour we all love in classic Quebec-style meat pie? A splash of our Espresso Superiore coffee comes and adds it all in one fell swoop. The deep richness of the coffee and the cinnamon-and-cloves spiciness marry the sautéed pork in a match made in holiday heaven.

    Preheat the oven to 350°F.

    Roll out the shortcrust pastry dough on a floured surface to an 1/8-inch thickness.

    Cut out eight 5-inch circles in the dough using a cookie-cutter or a bowl.

  • 10

    Line 8 ramekins, taking care to press the rims.

  • 11

    Pour the cooled meat mixture into the ramekins.

  • 12

    Mix together the beaten egg and water for the egg wash.

  • 13

    Brush the rims with the egg wash.

  • 14

    Cut out eight 3 ½-inch circles using a cookie cutter or a bowl and lay them on the ramekins to cover the meat mixture.

  • 15

    Brush over the pastry with the egg wash.
