Mini Berry Pies End Spring Meals On A Sweet, Light Note!

Ilove sweets and desserts of all kind, but now that summer is fast approaching, I’m constantly on the lookout for lighter treats to accompany fresh and dainty warm-weather meals.
After all, when you’re supping on something nourishing and simple like this easy dish of salmon and veggies, you don’t necessarily want a heavy dessert weighing down your palette.
That’s why I‘m all about recipes that take the warmth and richness of classic desserts, and repackage them into a more nimble form perfectly suited to lazy evenings dining by candlelight, with a chorus of peepers serenading you.
My latest go-to is a flaky, golden-brown berry pie, resized to be a light and tasty individual serving.
These are the perfect way to end a nice meal, jazz up a little get-together, or just munch on when you’re in the mood for something not-too-sweet.
Print out the recipe below, and get going on the perfect treat to cap off a light meal!
