Frequently Asked Questions
For our traditional English-style pies, reheat frozen pie in a preheated oven (or airfryer) at 330F for about 1 hour.
For a quicker bake time, thaw pie in your fridge overnight and bake at 350F for about 30 mins. Our English-style pies taste best when reheated in an oven, not a microwave. We've had customers experiment with the microwave with great success, thawing them for 5 minutes in the microwave and finishing them off in the air-fryer or oven until crispy (about 5-10 minutes).
For our Wee Pasties, bake straight from frozen (you can egg wash them first for that extra golden brown finish) - we recommend 350F for about 25-30 mins or until golden brown. We find baking the pasties straight from frozen helps them keep their shape as they cook.
Always heat until internal temperature of pie reaches 165F. Reheating times may vary.
As of right now, all of our pies are made with wheat flour. We've been doing some recipe testing and hope to have a gluten "friendly" option available sometime soon. Due to the nature of the shared commerical kitchen we prepare our pies in, we will be unable to guarantee a completely gluten-free product.
Our "Harissa Squash and Butterbean Pie" is both vegetarian and vegan (no meat products, dairy, or eggs). Our "Spinach 'N' Feta" Wee Pasties 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 NEW 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.
We sell our English-style pies for $12 each. We also offer a "6 for $60" discount for buying multiple pies. All English-style pies (as of right now) are the same price, so you can mix and match to complete any offer.
When we have them with us at the market, our Wee Pasties are $10 for a pack o' 2, or two packs (4 pasties) for $18.
