Cherry Pie Heart Pops
You know those cherry or apple pies you find at a gas station? I think of those when I look at these but these cherry pie heart pops are so much more delicious. Plus, they are a made with a from-scratch pie crust. They are the perfect creation for Valentine’s Day.

Cherry Pie Heart Pops
Yields: 6
Time: 45 Minutes
Ingredients
For pie crust:
- 1 ¼ cups all purpose flour (plus more for rolling dough)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 2 tablespoons ice water
Additional ingredients and materials for pies:
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 large egg, with a splash of water
- Cherry jam (or other filling of your choice)
- Lollipop sticks (oven-safe)
- Heart shaped cookie cutter
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Make pie crust: In a food processor, pulse flour, salt, and sugar several times to combine. Add butter.
Pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons ice water. Pulse until dough is crumbly but holds together when squeezed with fingers (if needed, add up to 2 tablespoons more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time). Do not over process.
- Roll out dough until it is smooth and even, roughly ¼” thick.
- Use heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out hearts. Recombine the scraps of dough and repeat until you have 12 hearts.
- Spoon a bit of cherry jam or filling of your choice into the center of half of the hearts. Keep the border around the outside of the hearts clean.
- Place a lollipop stick on each crust, pushing down with a bit of pressure so it sticks into the dough. Then, place plain dough hearts on top. Place heart pies onto a baking sheet
- Use a fork to pinch the edges of each pie together. Next, brush egg wash onto tops to allow them to get golden and crispy while baking.
- Sprinkle a bit of white sugar on top. Bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown.
