Recipe for Soft savory pie with mushrooms
Start preparing the soft savory pie with mushrooms and brie cheese by making mini pies. Whisk the eggs with milk and oil in a bowl.
Continue by sifting flour and yeast.
Mix well and then add the salt.
Pour the mixture into a clever mold of 9.5 inches or 6 molds of 3-4 inches if you want to make single servings like I did.
Bake the mini pies in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 25 minutes.
Remove from oven and extract the mini pies from the molds.
Add the brie and put everything back in the oven just long enough to melt the cheese.
Meanwhile, prepare the mushrooms: heat extra virgin olive oil with a garlic clove in a pan. Add the mushrooms (both fresh and frozen work) and cook for about 15 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper.
Add the mushrooms to the mini pies and decorate with fresh chopped parsley.
Serve the soft savory pie with mushrooms and brie cheese immediately.
