Frequently Asked Questions
Traditional English-Style Pies
From Frozen:
Bake in a preheated oven at 330°F (165°C) for 50–75 minutes.
From Thawed (quicker option):
Thaw your pie in the fridge overnight, then bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 30 minutes.
Microwave Option (not recommended, but effective):
While our pies taste best when reheated in the oven, some customers have had success by thawing the pie in the microwave for 5 minutes, then finishing in the oven until crispy (about 5–7 minutes).
Important:
Reheating times may vary based on your oven.
Heat until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Wee Handpies
From Frozen:
Bake straight from frozen in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30–40 minutes, or until golden brown. We find that baking them directly from frozen helps them keep their shape as they cook.

Pie ‘N’ Pie
From Frozen:
Remove plastic lid and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 45 minutes.

Our "Harissa Squash and Butterbean Pie" is both vegetarian and vegan (no meat products, dairy, or eggs). Our "Spinach 'N' Feta" Wee Handpies are vegetarian but contain dairy.
Our Black Pepper Beef pie can be considered spicy to some people. It is very black pepper forward and it packs a bit of a punch! Our Harissa Squash and Butterbean pie has a bit of a kick to it, as it uses the North African spice harissa spice blend in our rich tomato sauce.
