Mixed Berry Pie
I’m a sucker for pie, especially berry pie. Cakes and cookies I could easily do without, but warm pie out of the oven – it’s my kryptonite. To keep the pies on the lighter side, I only use the crust on top. I used the least amount of sugar I could to sweeten them without the filling getting too tart, if you’re berries are very sweet you could probably use less sugar.
With Valentine’s in mind, I used heart shaped cookie cutter to cut a heart out of the center. Other shapes would work, such as stars for Memorial Day, or simple poke holes all around.
Helpful Tips to Make Pie:
- To make this gluten-free you can turn this into a fruit crisp and top it with chopped nuts and oats.
- The mixed berry pie filling is easy to make yourself. You can use frozen berries instead of fresh.
- If you wish to use only one type of berry, such as blueberries only, use 3 3/4 cups of fruit.

This recipe uses refrigerated pie crust.
Could I use monk fruit sweetener in this recipe?
I made this tonight and I gave one to my husband. Right away he said, “This is excellent”! Definitely a keeper 🙂 I made it exactly as written, wouldn’t change a thing!
So good!!
I see people asking about using apples instead of berries, what about peaches? Do you think they would work just as good? Same prep?
Sure!
This is a great idea
Hi, I just want to make sure I am reading this right. When you say
“1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch” do you mean one 1/2 TBSP or do you mean one and one half TBSP? The same goes for the berries. I’ve wondered the same on other recipes but fortunately I’ve been able to find my answers in the comment section. Sometimes this section of your recipes is hard to read. I love your recipes by the way! Thanks😊
Looks great. What size ramekins did you use?
6 oz
How many ounce ramekin are these for 6 points? Thanks! Looks awesome!
Soooooo delish!!!!! Came out great. I took the dough off the pie plate and rolled it into four circles. It was fabulous. Put on a tbs of fat free cool whip. Happy V day…. yes a little earlier because we ate it today!!!!!
Where did you get these mini pie ceramics?

Pies turned out very nicely, but needed to be a little sweeter. Next time I’d probably up the sugar a bit.
I was wondering if I could do with apples and would they be cooked or raw? I did read the other comment that you absewred yes to but was not sure which way. Thanks these look amazing going to try with berries tonight!
I want to make 4 and eat once each day. Do these refrigerate well?
yes
So easy, yet super delicious – love berries in dessert 🙂 thank you!
So I’m thinking of using the Apple portion of your skinny apple cobbler with the same pie crust shown in these individual pies. Would you still sauté the apples before baking them, or would you just load up the ramekins with the Apple filling raw and bale like you did the berries?
Thanks so much! https://www.skinnytaste.com/skinny-apple-cobbler/
Yes!
I made it. I loved it. My whole family devoured it. I’m planning to make again this weekend. I also am trying to figure out the ideal skinny version of Apple pie filling to do the same individual preparation for. Thanks Gina. This one is a keeper!
Can you make these with apples instead of the berries? If so how many apples?
Do you defrost the frozen berries?
Lovely idea….and looks absolutely delicious
If using frozen fruit, does it need to be thawed first?
no
Thanks!
These are great! Thank you for an individual dessert idea! My husband doesn’t have a sweet tooth and it can be hard to come up with healthy single serve dessert ideas for my sweet tooth. I love fruit desserts especially.
Gina, this recipe looks fantastic. As a fan for several years we have loved any recipe of yours I make. For this berry pie I would prefer to just make a real pie since I do not have the ramekins. Could I just use the same recipe and put in a 9inch pie plate with a bottom crust? Thanks so much! Gail Z
Can you make these with apples?
Stevia or truvia sugar substitutes
Sure it will work the same, add to taste
These look delish and they are so adaptable to suit anyone’s taste buds. Use Stevie or trulia if your trying to cut out the sugar
Can I do it as 1 big pie instead of minis? If so does the cooking time change? Thanks in advance.
Time would be the same, you may need more filling? Not sure
Where can you buy those cute ramekins with the handles?
Home Goods
If I use frozen fruit do I defrost first? This looks delish!
I’m in UK. What is refrigerated pie crust please? They look so good!
Refrigerated pie crusts are premised crust in your freezer or cold section in your grocery store. Easier than making your own. 🙂
**premade
It’s pie crust already made and ready to use, in the refrigerated or freezer section of your local grocery store
Yummy and so easy to make. Since I didn’t have the individual ramiikins that size I made a whole pie that served 4, but the individual makes such a nice presentation.
What is raw sugar? The foto looks like the berries are topped with powdered sugar…?
that is corn starch. raw sugar is sugar in the raw, you can use granulated too.
Any reason why I have to use sugar? How about stevia?
I definitely am making this dessert. Gina, where did you get those beautiful ramekins? And what size are they?
My daughter is making easy bagels this morning for us. We are celebrating my daughter’s 50th birthday and visiting for the weekend. Love ❤️ your recipes.
This looks so simple and so good. So can they be prepared ahead of time and then baked off “after dinner” to be served warm? I am unsure if doing that would cause too much juice from the berries – hoping this makes sense.
yes!
These look delish! Any ideas where to get ramikins?
Most dollar stores have ramekins
I bought my ramekins at Michaels. I paid less than a dollar for each.
