Season with salt and pepper and allow filling to cool.

Step 6

Melt the remaining butter and set aside.

Step 7

Lay 1 sheet of phyllo dough onto a clean cutting board and brush the entire surface with melted butter. Place another sheet of phyllo dough on top. Cut into 6 equal pieces. Repeat this step with remaining 2 sheets of dough.

Step 8

Line a standard size non-stick muffin tin with the phyllo squares allowing sides to hang over.

Step 9

Place approximately ? cup (75 mL) of filling into each muffin cup and fold hanging dough over to seal the pies.
