Pie Crust Cookies Recipe

Our Pie Crust Cookies Recipe is the perfect solution for your holiday baking pie crust scraps. They’re a lightly sweetened treat that’ll keep everyone happy until you serve those delightful pies! Pie crust cookies are super simple to make. All you need is pie dough scraps, cinnamon, sugar, nutmeg, and a sprinkle pf pumpkin pie spice mix to add that perfect touch of autumn! I love to make them during my holiday baking season because I think there’s no better way to garnish ice cream or custard. A little bit of crunchy sweetness added to a dessert is always a welcome addition!

Today’s Pie Crust Cookies Recipe are a childhood favorite!

These Pie Crust Cookies are one of my favorite ways to use up pie dough scraps. . . those extra little pieces that are too small to make a whole pie out of but too yummy to throw away! I love these little Pie Crust Cookies. Our pie crust cookies recipe is a spin-off the cinnamon/sugar pie crust scraps that my gram and mom used to make when I was a little girl. They would make them by placing the extra pie dough odds and ends on a cookie sheet, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, and then a quick bake. A delicately-flaky and ‘early’ treat to enjoy hours before we’d be able to slice the actual pies. 🙂

Just in case you need a really good pie dough recipe, one of my favorites is our No Fail Pie Crust recipe or last weeks French Pâte Brisée Sucrée is really amazing too.
