eggs

Don’t worry! You’re still reading that article about Kmart pie maker recipes! Yes – your Kmart pie maker is actually really good at making eggs. If you struggle to make poached eggs the traditional way you can crack an egg into you Kmart pie maker instead! Simply add a few teaspoons of hot water to your heated pie maker, crack an egg in and let it cook for 3-5 minutes. Once you’ve cooked your easy-peasy poached egg serve it on top of mixed mushrooms and smoked salmon for stunning brunch.

Your Kmart pie maker can also create the perfect cooked eggs to add to a bacon and egg roll. Follow the steps above but cook the egg for a little longer for a tender cooked egg that won’t drip all over the shop!

Can I use baking paper in a pie maker? Yes. Baking paper can be cut to size and placed at the bottom of each individual pie well, which may make it easier to release the pies at the end of their cooking time.

Can you cook frozen pies in pie maker? ›

Thawed pies – heat for approximately 12-15 minutes. Frozen pies - heat for approximately 30 minutes. Caution: During cooking, open the pie maker slowly and carefully, as excess pie filling may overflow and can scald.

What is the best pastry to use for pies? ›

If you are making a pie with a crust you'll need to decide which type of pastry to go for. Shortcrust pastry is the best for pies that fully encase a filling as they tend to be firmer and less likely to leak. Puff pastry is great if you prefer just a pastry lid on top of the filling.

Glass Pie Pan Experiment Results

For texture, it was most comparable to the crust baked in the ceramic pan. Glass takes a long time to conduct heat compared to metal, so you may not achieve as much browning on the bottom and sides of your crust. This is exactly what we found with this crust – minimal browning occurred.

Can I use parchment paper under pie crust? ›

This is entirely up to you! I don't think you need it, but you can certainly use a parchment paper round on the bottom of the pie dish to prevent sticking. I don't recommend having the parchment paper come up the sides of the dish as the wrinkles will bake into the crust and can be hard to unstick later.

How do you fry an egg on an electric stove? ›

Add some butter or oil and wait for it to start sizzling. Then crack the eggs one at a time and add to the hot, sizzling oil. Turn the heat down to medium and turn the eggs when the edges start to brown. At this point turn the heat off and let the residual heat finish cooking the eggs.
