YOU MADE

A GOOD

CHOICE

The PetitePie™Maker Model 860 comes to you from

Chef’sChoice®,the maker of the world’s ﬁnest professional

household gourmet products. The PetitePie™Maker is not

only for special occasions. The PetitePie™Maker brings to

your home the capabilities of making treats for breakfast,

lunch, dinner and dessert. Individual quiches, mufﬁns and

both savory and sweet pies can be ready in minutes. You

may bake pies from scratch or use convenient short cuts

for that home baked ﬂavor.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR PetitePie™Maker

It will take only a minute to get to know your PetitePie™Maker Model 860. You will see that it is

made of high strength, durable quality, high temperature engineering plastic, cast aluminum plates

and a brushed stainless steel lid.

To open the lid, squeeze the front plastic handle with its locking latch together and lift.This will expose

the baking plate surfaces.

The non-stick surfaces of the Model 860 are coated with the world’s most advanced non-stick

technology.You will be impressed to see how easily even your stickiest pies, cakes or biscuits can be

lifted off the plates. In most cases, cleanup is as easy as wiping out the pie maker with a soft cloth.

There is no power switch. The baking plates are energized as soon as the power cord is inserted into

a three (3) prong 120 Volt A.C. outlet. Once plugged in the red baking light will illuminate immediately

to let you know the Model 860 is “ON”. The red light (see Figure 1) will stay lit as long as the unit is

plugged in, indicating there is power to the unit. In about 4 minutes the plates will be heated and the

green light will come on indicating the unit has come to the proper baking temperature. The green

light will cycle on and off maintaining the proper bake temperature. When the green light is on the

unit is at the proper baking temperature. Heating will resume automatically and the green light will

go out whenever the plates need power to maintain a uniform temperature.The green light will come

back on when the plates have once again reached the proper temperature. The green baking light

will continue to cycle on and off as you bake, reassuring you that the proper baking temperature is

being maintained.

There is a convenient timer (see Figure 2a) built into the PetitePie™Maker. Follow the recipe’s timing

instructions. The timer may be adjusted to your individual needs.Times will vary based on the type of

food being baked.Set the time your pies need to bake by using the up and down arrows (see Figure 2a).

Bake” light

To increase the time, press the up arrow.To decrease the time, press the down arrow.You may quickly

increase or decrease the time by pressing the up or down arrow and holding it in until the desired

setting is reached.To clear the times press both arrows at the same time. Once you have set the time

you need for your recipe press the Start button and the timer will start counting down. You will hear

the PetitePie™Maker beep seven times when your pies are ready. The beeper will sound again after

a minute if no one has attended to the pies. The pie maker is programmed to remember how long

you set the time for. With a little experience you will achieve perfect pies, cakes, mufﬁns and quiches

every time.

Please note that baking continues after the timer beeps.The timer does not control the heating elements.

Included with the PetitePie™Maker is a two sided pastry cutter and a pusher (see Figure 2b). The

large side of the cutter should be used for cutting the bottom pie shell and the smaller side should

be used for cutting out the tops or for opened faced crusts, such as used in tarts. The pusher can be

used to gently depress the bottom crust into the pie form.

For your safety when baking, open the lid very carefully.

Provisions have been made for cord storage on the bottom of the unit.

USING THE PetitePie™Maker FOR THE FIRST TIME

Insert the PetitePie™Maker power cord into a grounded 120 volt outlet and close the cover. The red

“baking” light will turn on immediately indicating there is power to the unit and the plates are heating.

In about 4 minutes the green light will come on indicating the PetitePie™Maker is ready for baking.

On the ﬁrst heating you may sense a slight odor during the heat-up cycle. This is typical of new

heating elements. Because both of the baking surfaces are factory ﬁnished with an extremely effective

non-stick coating, it is unnecessary to oil the surfaces before you use the PetitePie™Maker.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR PIES AND TARTS

1. Plug in the pie maker and Preheat as described previously.

2. While the PetitePie™Maker is preheating, prepare the crust. Unroll premade pie crust on a

lightly ﬂoured surface or roll out homemade dough to a ﬂat sheet of desired thickness.

3. Cut out the pie bottoms and tops (if needed) using the supplied cutter. The included pie cutter

has a large and small cutter conveniently molded into one piece. Use the larger circle for the

bottom crusts and the smaller circle for the top crusts.Apply light pressure with ﬁngers inside

the top lip of the pie cutter to cut through the pastry (Figure 3a). Pressing on the cutter with a

ﬂattened hand is not recommended as the top edges of the cutter can cause discomfort to the

hand (Figure 3b).

4. Prepare the pie ﬁlling. The pie ﬁlling will need to be spooned into the crusts immediately after

the crusts are placed into the pie maker. Fillings can range from sweet to savory and you can

bake double or single crusted pies.

5. Making sure that the green “ready” light is illuminated, place one pie base into one of the pie

cavities, taking care to center the dough in the cavity. Then use the pusher to press the dough

so that it is in full contact with the baking plate (Figure 3c).

6. Spoon the pre-cooked pie ﬁlling into the base. For covered pies, use a rounded ½ cup of ﬁlling.

for un-covered pies and tarts, ﬁll the pastry shell approximately 2/3full.

7. For covered pies, place a pie pastry cover (small circle) over the ﬁlled pie, being careful to

center the dough. It is recommended to pierce the cover in a few small places to allow steam to

escape during cooking.

8. Repeat steps 5-7 to make pies in the remaining three cavities. It is recommended to cook in full

batches of four for even cooking and consistent thermostat operation.

9. Close the lid ﬁrmly so that the latch clicks into the locked position.

10. Set the timer for the time recommended by the speciﬁc recipe.

11. When the timer beeps, check the pies.The pies should be golden brown when fully baked. If the

color of the pies is too light, close the lid and continue baking for another minute or two. If the

pies are too dark, reduce the cooking time by a minute or two for the next batch of pies. Keep

hands away from the hot stainless cover and baking surfaces. Touch only the plastic parts and

handle provided.

12. When the pies are done they can be removed easily by lifting one edge with a heat-resistant

plastic fork and sliding a ﬂat spatula under the pie to lift and transfer it to a cooling rack.

(If you use a metal fork, use care not to contact cooking surfaces since that might scratch the

non-stick surface and decrease its effectiveness.)

Figure 3a. Figure 3b. Figure 3c.

13. After removal of the pies, the PetitePie™Maker can be immediately reﬁlled with a new set of

crusts and ﬁllings or it can be closed until you are ready to bake again.

14. When ﬁnished baking, be certain to unplug the PetitePie™Maker. Only then is the unit no longer

powered. Always unplug the PetitePie™Maker immediately after use. Never leave it unattended

when plugged in. Children should not be allowed to use the pie maker except in the presence

of an attentive adult. The PetitePie™Maker cools faster when its lid is left fully open. Store only

when cold.

much ﬁlling in the pie forms as that will cause an overﬂow and increase the clean up time. Too

little ﬁlling will result in an underdone uneven top crust. With practice you will know how full

the crusts should be so that the top plates cook the top crusts evenly. Close the lid immediately

after adding the pie crust and ﬁlling. Press down lightly on the lid handle as it is closed and snap

SOME FAVORITE RECIPES

Petite Pie Basics

Savory pies and quiches taste best when they are warm. You might prefer to let them cool on a wire

rack for several minutes prior to serving. This gives the pie ﬁllings a chance to cool some before

cutting into them. Some steam may be released when you cut into the pies, so exercise care.

Pies can be kept warm in a 300 degree oven while you cook the remaining batches. Pies and cakes

may be frozen for use at a later time.

* Many trademarked products are available which can be used in the PetitePie™Maker®such as:

General Mills Bisquick®for Impossible Pies and coffee cakes, Pillsbury Hungry Jack®Biscuits, and Pillsbury®

pre-made Pie Crusts.

Baking Empty Tart Shells

It can be fun to bake empty tart shells to be ﬁlled later with refreshing glazed fruit or a light ﬂuffy mousse.

Your PetitePie™Maker is excellent for baking pie shells, which can be ﬁlled later. The shells may be

made from your favorite pie crust recipe or use pre-made pie crust dough, commercially available from

companies such as Pillsbury®. One package of pre-made dough will yield about 8 shells.

Preheat the pie maker. Use the small end of the dough cutter to cut out 8 small circles. Using the included

press, gently push the dough into the pie form. Next, use a fork and gently prick the bottom and sides of

each crust. Set the timer for 6 minutes. Close the lid and bake. The shells should be lightly browned when

ﬁnished. Cook longer if necessary.

Remove to a cooling rack. When the shells are cool ﬁll them with your favorite fruit or mousse ﬁlling.

Personal Breakfast Quiches

1 package of purchased pie dough such as Pillsbury®or your favorite home made dough

2/3cup milk

2. Unroll each of the pie rounds. Stretch or roll the pie dough so that you can get four large circles using the large

cutter from each round.

3. Wisk together the milk, eggs, salt and pepper, and mustard. Stir in the scallions and peppers.

4. Place each pie dough round in the PetitePie maker and use the pusher to gently depress the dough into the

pie form. Sprinkle the bottom with the ham and ﬁll the pie 2/3of the way with the egg mixture. Sprinkle the top

with cheese. Close the lid and bake for 10 minutes.

5. Use a fork to gently lift the quiche enough to slide a ﬂat spatula under the bottom. Transfer the quiche to a

cooking rack.
