I think it burnt because of the sugar, next time try without and see if it still burns

Would be smarter for you to put the sugar on when there's about 3-5 minutes left on the clock, that way it won't burn

I have the four small deep dish pies version and I absolutely love it. The other night I shredded up some left over roast beef, mixed it with some thick gravy and sautéed mushrooms. So delicious. I’ve also done a berry version which was great. Just some tips: If you dust a little flour over the bottom pastry it should help thicken the juices a little and stop them from leaking out. Turn the machine on to heat before you start constructing the pie. I just use a spoon to press the bottom layer of pastry into place. The base comes out a lot better and the cooking time is shorter. The higher you pile the filling, the better the top comes out. You want the top plate to be in full contact with the pastry for an evenly crisp finish. You don’t need to seal before you close. I don’t egg wash my pies. They turn out nice and brown without it. I also don’t add any sugar until the last 5 minutes. It still goes nice and caramel. You can open the machine to check occasionally. Just do it quickly so you don’t affect the temperature too much. Also. Try a pie with a short crust base and scrunched up filo pastry (lightly oiled) on the top. It looks and tastes lovely.

Doesn't look very much quicker or easier than just using a regular pie pan and putting it in the oven. The crust cutter looks handy though. I guess if you don't have an oven and really like pies. Just another gadget that ends up in the back of the cabinet till it gets sold in a yard sale, where someone else can buy it and make one pie with it and then put it in the back of their cabinet. Love this channel, always fun to watch.

Yea it works! I would like to see how it does with pies that don't have a top crust. Maybe make a quiche or deep dish pizza in it 👍😄

I always think about a lot of these types of gadgets for big meal prep, like christmas, where the cook isn't blessed with multiple oven. My mum is very territorial about her oven space during those times and I had to make my contribution with a teeny toaster oven. This frees up the pie slot.. I might have to get this.

This is the first gadget video I've ever seen from you where at the end of the video I still thought "I want this. I need this." It's brilliant.

Clear cherry pie? Yes please!!!

I could see this potentially saving some power too, I can only imagine it's easier to heat up that little plate than keep an entire oven at the same temp. Though might be wrong there, it just feels like it would save a bit. And not heat up your place so save a bit on cooling there too, unless it's winter time and you'd like the bonus warm lol.

Clear chocolate tart....? Would be a tough one but a good one!

It's the sugar that burnt the top, add the sugar after cooking. I've had this pie maker for a good few years and love it, perfect pies every time

why don't you do a series what a toastie maker can do? Apple turn over first?

I usually use short crust pastry for the base and puff pastry for the top

I cannot get enough of these kitchen gadget videos. I tell my mom about them and all the really neat stuff that could help make our lives easier

Hi Barry, love your videos. I don't usually make a habit of commenting but I noticed that you were using a coiled extension cable for the pie maker. The heat generated from the electricity travelling around the coiled wire can quite easily get too hot when in use as there is no air getting around the cable to keep it cool. The wire could potentially melt and trip the circuit, or even set on fire. I don't want to sound all health and safety about it, but I felt I had to mention this as I've seen a fire caused by this and I'm not sure it's common knowledge that these extention cables need to be fully uncoiled to be used safely. Keep up the good work, I love secret vlog club!

I think the reason it got dark on top is because you added Egg and Sugar to the top of pie and was not supposed too

I think the burning was mainly due to the sugar on top :) sugar burns faster than pastry. It looks lovely though!! :)

I see it's made by Tower. We had cooking pans made by Tower in the 1970's - they were quality gear, and I regretfully got rid of them in about 2007, when one of the handles eventually worked loose. You're in good hands.

I am surprised you didn't use your favorite apple core and slice device for this. I use mine for pies every fall. It really helps. The burning was from the sugar. I wouldn't add that until the pie is cooling .

The major downside is, it's harder to store the pie in the fridge as you have to take it out of the maker. With a normal pie dish, you can let it cool down and then put the pie with the dish in the fridge (covered up). Also, the family size ones are not available in the US. Luckily, there are a couple of different brands of mini pie makers.

That looks like a fun gadget. I love the idea you can take it right out of the pan and not to have to worry about fiddling around with a pie plate to get that first piece out. You are missing the ice cream ;) or for some a piece of Cheddar cheese on top.

Put a thin layer of condensed milk over the apples before sealing, gives a saucy, creamy, sweet taste after baked.. So delicious

The blueberry apple filling would be great with lemon!

Saw something like this in a magazine the other day (only it made 4 smaller ones rather than one large one) - was tempting then but might just have to go for it now. Thanks for sharing!

I bet Jason Biggs is super excited for this one!

I like it because you don't have to heat the whole kitchen up to make a pie. The reviews on Amazon said it makes a great omelette Barry. Love to see other recipes in it.

I had the idea that all these unitask cooking devices should have interchangeable plates, that way if you wanted to make different food items you could just swap out the plate for another set.

Wow, I wasn't expecting that to work anywhere near as well as it did, rather impressed. Perhaps you could show it off with a savoury pie recipe in the future? I wonder what kind of mad filling ideas you could come up with, a half and half savoury/sweet pie perhaps?

Please can we have more videos with Mrs Barry and the kids? They're really entertaining!😊

I just recently found you, but I am thoroughly enjoying every one of your videos! And I love the intro where you say “I hope you are well”. 💚💚💚 Well, you know what? I hope YOU are well...as well. ❤️

Please make more recipes with this machine!

We have one and we just use premade puff pastry. It takes less time and is always delicious! Also, I think the burning was because of the sugar and egg being on the entire time - maybe next time add it part of the way through :)

This would also come in handy for people that are in college or some other sort of living situation where they do not have a full kitchen at there disposal, or people who are disabled and can not access the oven as easily. I like this idea.

I think that would be great for making pot pies or shepherd's pies for dinner or even pizza pies too would be fun and then make an desert pie for later.I love pie more than cake so that would be great for me.

I've had a Liren Pie/Flan Maker since 2001. Its been an absolute staple in my kitchen for toasted sandwiches, pies, and soufflés, Yours has sloped sides but that shouldn't make a difference. Consider also many of the Chinese snacks, fried dumplings, and various fried buns. Also as a dry pan for making various flat breads and pancakes.

YES to the clear cherry pie!!!!! 🤤

With hot filling my Aldi one takes 15 _20 mins. Also if you put a dbl thickness strip, maybe three ins wide of grease proof paper on the base, hanging over the sides you can lift the pie out easily.

I think the box pie is a lie, cos you can't get an even cook on the lid with the leaf on the top, but otherwise a neat gadget... :) And it's plug, Barry, the socket is what is on the wall, have to be a bit of a pedant on that one... :P

I think it said no egg wash for a reason 🤣. I applaud your work though! I’m a chef and in culinary school everyone would always say, “You can either be a chef and or you can be a baker. It’s one or the other, you can’t be both. Chefs can’t bake and pastry chefs can’t cook.” (Obviously it’s a little over the top, but you’d be surprised how accurate that statement is at times!) I personally couldn’t bake to save my life!… I do try though ☺️

The Health and Safety obsessive in me wants you to unroll your extension lead all the way. It’ll get really hot and will either trip your electrics or catch fire!! Great looking pie btw!

I haven't finished watching yet but I agree. This will smash it out of the park. I love my pie maker. Endless possibilities. Sweet or savory, fruit or meat it never fails to please much like your videos.

I've watched one review of the Dash mini pie maker, and its performance wasn't that great either. It seemed to brown the crust by contact but didn't actually bake the filling, and some areas of the crust were raw. This one seems to do better but other than freeing up the oven for other cooking at Christmas or other major holidays, I don't see much advantage over just using the oven. I don't have a lot of extra storage space for it either. Great review, thanks!

Needed to be fuller to get good contact with the too, for even cooking. I'd have folded over the edges too, so when it crimps, it closes the pie. Great video 👍

Just here for my regular dose of dad jokes and fatherly shenanigans, cheers!

Just showed this video to my daughter and son in law. We're definitely buying one! It will really come in handy at Christmas time. The perfect size for a family of five (oops plus one - their third bubby is due in November!)

A blue spatula with MVK in white would be nice so we can buy them?

Damn you’ve made me want apple pie now Barry! (With pink apples!)

Funny you mentioned the innards maybe being too wet. I was thinking the opposite! Love my pie fillings to flow over the plate, especially ala-mode!

Hi Barry! I found your channel this weekend and have totally binge watched it! Absolutely love it and your sense of humour is fantastic! Keep it up! 😁

I made mini pies once in my toastie maker!! Premade pastry and some apples. It worked great

The UK plugs look like the ones for washers here in the States. We only have two prongs for our small apppliances. Three pronged plugs are for like I said and other things like power tool extension cords(orange or yellow in color).

Make a Pizza Pie next with this please. Awesome episode!

you're killing it with your videos lately barry! you're doing so well, thanks

I just use my home made pastry and tinned steak. You can also use thick chunky Vegetable soup, but thicken first with a bit of corn flour.

as a qualified chef, i seasdon cast iron pans allot, its usually done by adding oil in pan, heatin g up til smoking, then take it out and add salt and mix it for a minuite or so, take that out and put your oil from earlier back in for a minuite and keep going back and forth, try it in a good pan you have at home atleast 7 times over and cook an egg in it, its pretty cool

You can make apple skin chipa with the left over skins! Healthy snacks with no waste left over!😍

I totally approve of the pie maker ♿️. I wonder if I can get one off of Amazon. Yay, Christmas. Lol I need this in my life. The only thing that makes me a bit nervous is removing the pie from the pie maker. I’m glad this turned out to be such a great and helpful gadget. 👍🏽

A little bit of cornflour would help thicken the filling.

Love the review. If my kitchen weren't so small, you might've convinced me to get one. I LOVE the circle cutter. Be well!

Hehe, I love how excited you get over such little things!🤣

Intriguing though I never been a fan of pie but I wonder and no idea if you heat it up enough can you make a pancake in there 😂 not that I would get it for that just I’m curious if hot enough would it cook one without needing to flip or would you have to flip as doubt the lid would get the top. If that makes sense anyway I did however like the colour the the apple too, but sadly I ain’t a fan of cooked fruit but this would be a nice we gadget for my maw

That moment when you realize you only woke up to watch the new video 😂😂 lots of love and support from America!! Keep up the phenomenal work ♥♥

Wow, love this gadget! Really enjoyed this video!

Man I really would just love to get that pie crust cutter that came with it. That was an awesome gadget that I hope you can get on its own.

Hmm🤔if this video was made in 2018 and we're now in 2022, since I recently saw a mini-pie maker called DASH, this Pie Maker is better, checking this cool product our Barry,visions of Dutch apple Pie, Rhubarb Pie, Sweet Potatoe Pie,Pumpkin Pie....stopping here I'm droolin'🤤! Thanks for sharing Barry, 👍and greetings👋from central Mexico! 🥧😋

Omg i need this! For sweet or savory! (*drool* turkey pot pies 😛) especially after thanksgiving.

I only found your channel last week but I have been having multiple Barathons I love your videos!!

When using the crust cutter, you can use a rolling pin to help cut the crust without hurting your hands

Yesterday I made small apple and feijoa pies using a machine similar to that one. The difference with mine is it does two at a time and they are smaller. You should try making a New Zealand meat pie.

It looks delicious. I love the crusted top🥰

Now you need a competition on Barshens, 'guess the pie filling', as payback for that horrid tinned fish thing, and carbonated milk

I was thinking probably the sugar burned........neat gadget.............probably makes great savory pies as well. I wonder if you can do a lattice crust on top , or would all the juices burn and stick.

Wow, a way to make pie in summer and keep the kitchen cool.🤓🤓👩‍🍳🍏🍒👏👍

Hi Barry. Awesome vid ,but a slight complaint.... nothing to do with your cooking. The electrical lead that you used, please unroll it completely the next time you use high current drawing appliances on it. Due to things called back emf/ eddy currents you are damaging your poor lead. :)

Definitely one of the better gadgets you've tested :)

In the US, this is sold under the name Wolfgang Puck 9" Pie maker.

That worlds really well, great job Barry!

When I saw this thumbnail, I literally let out a high-pitched giggle and said, aloud, at midnight, "What? An electric pie maker??"

I know this is an old video and you probably won’t see this comment, but a great way to make apple pie is to use the same process you did but instead of heating the apple mix on the stove you add about 3-4 tablespoons of tapioca and stir all the ingredients together. Then cling wrap the bowl and let it sit in the fridge for about 4 hours. After that just put the pie filling in cold and bake the pie, it’s absolutely fantastic!

10:04 "Alright, so we're around 20 minutes in and my pie's turned to dogs".

Oh my God, that pie looks AMAZING!!! Yummmmm 😋😋😋

I believe your sugar on top is what caused the top to get too dark (well, burn, actually).

If you use cornstarch, in your apples, it will thicken the sauce. I like the sauce the best. I think on the whole it looks good, for a pie.

I feel like for a gadget to be worth the storage space it uses it must make the cooking process easier than the traditional way or give a much better result. How is this easier or better than popping the pie in the oven? Good video btw!

For a few disturbing seconds I was incredibly worried at how Barry was slurring his words and wobbling around. Was it a stroke, too much to drink? Nope-- forgot I had set the playback speed to .75. I can't tell you what a relief it was to realize the error. 🙄

I believe it's burned on top because of the sugar you put on it... Sugar usually burns if it's not stirred ...

Make an entire clear Christmas dinner. It would be a great holiday special!

Having been an apple knocker from the Okanogan where there beaucop apple orchards from central British Columbia to the Yakima Valley, making apple pie is a cultural thing. Which leads to the question of pre-cooking the filling? Peel, slice Granny Smith apples into a large bowl. Squeeze a lemon over the apples and toss. Add sugar, cinnamon, chopped walnuts, raisins, grated nutmeg and grated cloves. Mix well, add 2-3 tablespoons of flour and a ¼ cup of a Canadian bourbon. Cover with the top crust, wet and crimp edges. Makes a fe small incisions and bake in a hot oven until top crust is golden brown. Remove the pie and cool.

Love your Videos ...USA here in New England!

Hello from Maine! That is SO cool! I love pie and this would make is so easy! I think your pie burnt on the top because you sprinkled sugar on it, just my opinion.

My issue with it besides the uneven bake. Is the fact that the sides dont look crimped, just pressed. As for the burning (extra crispy) parts. It's due to the sugar hands down.

Hope they make a deep dish one. lol like a taller peace of Pie. But that looks great. Maybe the sugar is what got too brown, less sugar maybe next time. And Great Gadget Barry.

My family has always used individual pie maker for leftover pies at Christmas. Basically the same as that one only the pies are single serves. We buy premade prerolled puff pastry and then cut up roast dinner leftovers for the filling. I've never used shortcrust pastry just puff pastry. I've also made pancakes and quiche in my pie maker. Ours is called pie magic, I'm from Australia though so I don't know if you can get it in the U.K.

My virgin kitchen? Does that mean what I think it does They made a whole kitchen around virgin olive oil?

I've never heard of adding blueberries to an apple pie either. But I love blueberries so I guesss that would be tasty. Re: the scorching, maybe you should not sprinkle sugar on top before baking?

Eating and chilling with Barry, Stuart, and watching Star Wars? I think you just described a literal dream I had once. It was sleep paralysis though... And Eli was there too.

SWEET!!! Simmer your apples longer to develop the pectin thickening. Other things: soufflé omelettes, toasted sandwiches, steak, sausages, warming pita pockets, & focaccia might be interesting. Lastly, I'd like to see you pick your favourite, "Fry Bentos" pie and replicate it. Yours beats my LiRen Pie Maker hands down. Cheers.

Did you drain the filling before loading it into the crust? If not, that might be why it was a bit moist.

Looks like a nice pie to have with a bit of ice cream!
