Mini Strawberry Pies with Matcha Whipped Cream
Serves: 8
Ingredients
2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sugar, divided
2 sticks butter, chopped
6-8 tablespoons cold water
4 cups sliced strawberries
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 egg, whisked
1 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons confectioner sugar
1 teaspoon matcha, sifted
Directions
1. In a large bowl, add 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, salt, ¼ cup sugar and butter. Stir so butter is coated with flour. Using a fork, mash the butter into the flour, until the butter is the size of peas.
2. Add cold water, one tablespoon a time, and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough starts to come together. Lightly mix with hands until the dough just forms into a ball. Remove dough from bowl, wrap in plastic wrap, and store in refrigerator for at least one hour.
3. In a large bowl, mix remaining ¼ cup flour, remaining ½ cup sugar, strawberries, lemon zest and juice. Macerate for about 20 minutes.
4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
5. Remove dough from refrigerator. Dust with flour. Using a knife or bench scraper, cut dough into eight equal portions. Using hands, lightly roll each portion into a ball.
6. Dust a work surface with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll each dough portion into an 1/8-inch-thick disc.
7. To the center of each disc of dough, add a portion of the macerated strawberries, about ½ cup each. Fold the sides of the dough to secure the filling. Transfer to baking sheet. Brush the sides of dough with egg wash. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown, and the fruit filling is bubbling. Remove from oven and cool.
8. In a large bowl add cream. Using a hand mixer, whip until soft peaks form. Add confectioners’ sugar and sifted matcha. Whip until stiff peaks.
9. Serve Matcha Whipped Cream with Mini Strawberry Pies.
