Instructions
Make the Pie Crust Chips:
- Roll out pie crust to a 12-inch circle, approximately 1/8-inch thick. Chill at least 30 minutes before cutting into chips.
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Cut chips in desired shapes using cookie cutters or slice into triangles using a knife or pizza cutter. Place chips on cookie sheets (no need to space them much, they won’t spread).
- Brush lightly with beaten egg. Sprinkle with plain sugar, or mix the sugar with cinnamon then sprinkle for a cinnamon sugar topping.
- Bake 6-11 minutes, or until light golden and cooked through. Bake time depends on size. Cool completely before serving.
