Mini Ground Lamb Pot Pie Cupcakes for St. Agnes Day



I was looking for a lamb dish to make on the feast of St. Agnes and came across this cute idea for mini pot pies. Combining tender lamb with sun-dried tomatoes in a mini pastry crust and topping with mashed potato icing makes pretty “cupcake” looking pot pies.  


Lamb Pot Pie Cupcakes


Ingredients:

  • 3/4 lb. ground lamb
  • 8 oz sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • ¼ cup onions, chopped
  • 1 T. Olive oil 
  • Salt, pepper to taste
  • Mashed potato – for 'Icing' topping
  • Mini crusts, pre-made


Directions:

In skillet, saute onions in olive oil until tender. Add ground lamb and cook until browned.  Add sun dried tomatoes, cook for about 5 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste. Fill 12 mini pastry crusts with the ground lamb mixture.  Fill a piping bag with mashed potatoes. Pipe a swirl on top of the meat mixture to cover.  Place under a hot preheated broiler for 2-3 minutes to brown the mashed potatoes. Serve hot or cold. Good for a buffet, snack, lunch or dinner.   Makes: 12 mini pies

St. Agnes, Pray for us!
