How to Reuse Pie Dough Scraps

reusing pie dough scrapsIf you hate wasting food, here’s a good tip to reuse pie dough scraps: Use the scraps to roll out a mini shell dotted with butter and cinnamon sugar, then bake it; kids will love it! If it’s a savory dough, brush with melted butter, sprinkle with a little paprika, then bake off and use as croutons. Ultimately, you can freeze scraps of pie dough shaped into a ball. Thaw still wrapped in the fridge until it’s still pretty firm, then roll on a lightly floured surface as you would do with fresh dough.
