Cupcake-Tin Pork Pies

These individual cupcake-tin pork pies offer a clever, time-saving twist on the traditional British classic. By using a standard muffin tin to shape the pastry, you can achieve perfectly portioned savoury snacks with a crisp finish and a succulent, herby centre. The combination of quality minced pork, fragrant fresh sage, and grated onion creates a deeply satisfying filling that is naturally high in protein and full of nostalgic flavour.

Perfect for a quick lunch, a protein-packed snack, or as a portable addition to a family picnic, these homemade pies are much simpler to prepare than a single large gala pie. The use of shop-bought shortcrust pastry ensures a stress-free process without compromising on the golden, crumbly texture. Serve them warm from the oven or pack them into a lunchbox for a delicious midday meal.

Ingredients for Cupcake-Tin Pork Pies

  • 350g pork mince

  • 1 medium onion, peeled and grated

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage

  • 120ml bread crumbs

  • 2 (9-inch) discs prerolled, refrigerated pie dough (such as Pillsbury)

  • 2 eggs, beaten

How to make Cupcake-Tin Pork Pies

  1. Preheat oven to 191°C.

  2. Grease two 6-cup muffin tins with butter.

  3. In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients but the dough and 1 tablespoon of the eggs; refrigerate.

  4. Unroll the dough and cut out twelve 4-inch circles with a biscuit cutter or the rim of a drinking glass.

  5. Reroll the scraps, then cut out 12 more 2-inch circles.

  6. Line the bottoms and sides of the tins with the 4-inch rounds.

  7. Divide the filling evenly among the cups. Press the 2-inch rounds on top, pinching the edges together to seal.

  8. Poke a hole in the centre of each pie.

  9. Brush with the reserved egg and bake until the tops are browned and puffed slightly, 30 to 35 minutes.

  10. Let cool for 15 minutes before removing the pies. Serve warm.
