Step-by-Step Instructions for Mummy Cherry Pies
  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out your premade pie dough on a floured surface and cut out 16 circles using a 3-inch round cookie cutter.
  3. Slice the remaining dough circles into thin strips about ½ inch wide for the bandages.
  4. Spoon a small amount of cherry pie filling onto the center of each dough circle and place the sliced dough strips over the filling in a crisscross pattern.
  5. Brush the surfaces with the beaten egg to give the pies a beautiful golden sheen.
  6. Bake the Mummy Cherry Pies for 8–10 minutes until the crust turns a lovely golden brown.
  7. Allow the pies to cool slightly before adding the candy eyes on top while they are still warm.

Notes

Chill the dough before cutting to maintain its shape and prevent sticking. Don't overfill to avoid mess during baking. Allow to cool after baking before adding candy eyes. Freeze unbaked pies for future use.
