Prepare an egg wash by mixing 1 egg with 2 teaspoons of water using a fork.

Roll out the store-bought pie dough and cut out circles for the bottom of the mini pies.

Brush the edges of the pie crust with the egg wash to help seal the pies.

7

Fill the bottom of the mini pie maker with the pie crust dough, pushing it down to create a pocket.

Fill other cavities with blueberries and sprinkle about a teaspoon of sugar on top of them.

Place a small square of butter on top of the blueberry filling.
