7) Graveyard Pies
Graveyard pies are the ultimate autumnal dinner with a spooky Halloween twist that's sure to impress. These hearty pies are perfect for warming up on a crisp October evening while adding a bit of eerie fun to your meal.
To make your own fool-proof pie recipe, start with a classic filling of your choice - whether it's a savoury meat mix or a veggie-packed delight. For the graveyard effect, get creative with your pastry: use the end of your puff pastry sheet to cut out gravestone shapes. Place these shapes between two pieces of greaseproof paper and sandwich them between two trays to keep them flat during baking. Next, brush the rim of your pie pots with egg wash, and cut out circles of puff pastry roughly the same size as the pots. For a spooky touch, cut a slit about the same width as the gravestones 3/4 of the way up the circles, then press them onto the pie pots. Bake until golden brown and enjoy these ghoulishly good graveyard pies - ideal for adding a fun and festive touch to your Halloween dinner!
