    NOTE
    The pie maker will remain ready for use for an additional 20 minutes with the screen continuously flashing ‘ 00’.
    The ‘READY’ light will continue to cycle on and off to indicate the pie maker is maintaining the correct temperature. You can set a cooking time during this period. If a cooking time is not set after the additional 20 minutes, the auto-off safety feature will engage.
    The pie maker will sound 5 beeps and the screen will display ‘– –’ .
    Both the ‘HEATING’ and ‘READY’ lights will no longer be illuminated, indicating heating has stopped as the pie maker returns to standby mode.

  4. Place a single sheet of pastry (see Hints &
    Tips if using frozen pastry) on the bottom cooking plate, ensuring the sheet covers from side to side. Place the prepared filling on top of pastry sheet in each cooking well.

  5. Place another sheet of pastry over the top.
    WARNING
    Do not overfill pie wells or use excess liquid ingredients (i.e. sauces, gravies, custards). This may result in overflow from the pie maker or force the lid lock to suddenly release.

  6. Carefully close the lid and lock into place.
    NOTE
    If the lid is difficult to close and lock at first, rest the lid on the pastry for 1 minute to allow the ingredients to soften and then lock the lid into place.

  7. Set your required cooking time using the Timer Increase/Decrease buttons.

  8. Press START/CANCEL button to start immediately or cooking will commence automatically after 3 seconds. The time will stop flashing indicating the time is counting down.
    NOTE
    During cooking, you can adjust the timer by pressing the Timer Increase/Decrease buttons. ‘A Bit More’ can only be used at the completion of the timer.

  9. During cooking, the ‘HEATING’ and ‘READY’ lights will continue to cycle on and off to indicate that the pie maker is maintaining the correct temperature.

    WARNING
    During or after cooking, open the pie maker lid carefully. Cooked pie filling is hot and can scald.
    A BIT MORE™
    ‘A Bit More™’ button can only be used after the initial cooking time has finished. It is handy if you want to cook your pies just ‘a bit more’ without having to reset the timer. Press the ‘A Bit More™’ button up to 4 times adding 1 minute per press. There is no need to press the START/CANCEL button. The time entered will flash for 3 seconds on the screen, then the timer countdown will commence. ‘HEATING’ or ‘READY’ light will illuminate.
    NOTE
    After opening the pie maker to check on the cooked pies, it could be difficult to secure the clip into place. Simply close the lid without locking the clip and push the A BIT MORE™ button to continue cooking the pies.

  12. Once cooking is complete, open the lid and carefully remove your pies with the help of a silicone spatula. Never use metal tongs or a knife as these can cause damage to the non-stick coating. Alternatively, to continue making pies repeat steps 4-8.

  13. You can press the START/CANCEL button at any time during cooking to cancel cooking. The LED screen will display ‘– –’. The pie maker will return to standby mode, switch the pie maker off at the power outlet and remove the power plug from the power outlet.
    NOTE
    Cooking typical meat pies should take less than 10 minutes. Exact cooking time will be a matter of taste. It will also depend on the type of pastry, temperature and type of filling used.
    NOTE
    At all times the lid must be closed and locked into place.
    When using the pie maker for the first time you may notice a fine smoke haze. This is caused by the heating of some of the components.
    There is no need for concern.
    WARNING
    Steam may be ejected from between the cooking plates when the lid is closed. The amount will vary depending on how wet the filling is. Be careful not to make contact with the steam as it may cause burns.

Hints & Tips

SEASON THE PLATES
Season the plates occasionally to prevent sticking and to make cleaning easier. To season, brush the cooking plates with a little vegetable oil and rub off the excess with absorbent paper. It is not recommended to use cooking spray on non-stick coatings as this may affect the performance of the non- stick surface over time.

REHEATING
If the pies are not being eaten immediately, place on a paper napkin to absorb condensation or a cooling rack to keep for longer. Alternatively, place on a rack in an oven-proof dish to keep warm in a low oven, about 100°C. The pies should keep hot for up to 15 minutes this way, but will then begin to dry out.

FROZEN PASTRY
It is possible to use pastry sheets straight from the freezer. Always remove the plastic before use. For the pie base turn on the pie maker then, rest the pastry on the bottom plate until softened, then add your filling to each of the pie wells. For the pie top, allow the lid to rest on the top of the frozen pastry for 30 seconds to soften, before locking the clip into place.

PRE-HEAT OVER-RIDE
When over-riding the pre-heat, an additional 2 minutes will need to be added to the cooking time. So if the pie cooking time is 7 minutes and the pre-heat has been over-ridden, then the set time will need to be set at 9 minutes.

Care, Cleaning & Storage

Before cleaning, ensure the power is switched off and then remove the power plug from the power outlet. Allow your pie maker to cool before cleaning, however, the pie maker is easier to clean when the cooking plates are still slightly warm. Always clean your pie maker after each use to prevent a build- up of baked-on foods and fats. Wipe cooking plates with a soft, damp cloth to remove food residue. Do not place any part of the pie maker in the dishwasher.
TIP – Use a wet pastry brush (see Fig. 1) to help clean food stuck in between the cooking wells.

WARNING
Do not immerse any part of the pie maker or the power cord in water or any other liquid.

PFOA-FREE NON-STICK COATING
Cooking on a non-stick surface minimises the need for oil as food does not stick and cleaning is easier. Any discolouration that may occur will only detract from the appearance of the pie maker and will not affect the cooking performance. When cleaning the non-stick cooking plates, do not use metal (or other abrasive) scourers. Wipe with a soft damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

NOTE
Exposure to cooking oils and cleaning chemicals may cause colour fading and discolouration to the pie maker. If the pie maker is exposed to oils or chemicals, turn off and unplug the pie maker, allow to cool and use a soft damp cloth to clean the surface of the pie maker. Dry thoroughly before use.

NOTE
The cooking plates, hinges and overflow moat are coated with a non-stick surface, do not use abrasives to clean.

STORAGE

To store your pie maker:

  1. Ensure the power is off and then unplug power cord from the power outlet.
  2. Allow the pie maker to fully cool and clean as per instructions.
  3. Wrap the power cord in the cord wrap area below the pie maker.
  4. Store on a flat, dry level surface. Do not place anything on top of the pie maker.

WARNING
The handle is designed for opening and closing the pie maker during cooking. It should not be used for moving or carrying the pie maker. When moving the pie maker, allow the unit to  fully cool down and carry by lifting from both sides.

  2. Add the oil, onion and garlic. Sauté until softened and transparent, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and completely cool.
  3. In a large bowl, put the sausage mince, carrot, paprika, ground white pepper, salt, mixed herbs, tomato sauce, breadcrumbs and onion mixture. Combine well. Weigh the mixture out into 80g logs.
  4. Pre-heat the pie maker (optional).
  5. Lay one sheet of puff pastry on the bottom plate of the pie maker.
  6. Place a log of sausage roll filling into each pie well.
  7. Lay another sheet of puff pastry on the top.

    TIP – to make just 4 sausage rolls – Place one piece of puff pastry on the bottom plate only, resting over the front 4 pie wells. Fill the pie wells with the filling and fold the other half of the pastry over the top. Close the lid. Set the timer and allow the sausage rolls to cook as usual.

Apple pies

  • 40g unsalted butter
  • 750g peeled and diced Granny Smith apples
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp. ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice
  • 3 tsp. corn flour
  • 3 tsp. water
  • 2 sheet of puff pastry
  • ¼ cup caster sugar
  1.  Heat a large heavy based saucepan on a medium heat.

  2. Add the butter and allow to melt. Add the diced apples, brown sugar, 1 tsp. of the ground cinnamon, the nutmeg and lemon juice. Cook for 10 minutes or until the apples are tender whilst stirring regularly.

  3. In a separate small bowl, combine the corn flour and water together and stir to combine.

  4. Add the corn flour mixture to the apples whilst hot, until the mixture thickens. Remove the pot from the heat and allow to cool, unless using immediately.
    TIP – the apple pie filling can be made up to 2 days in advance, if cooled to room temperature and then kept refrigerated until required.

  5. Pre-heat the pie maker (optional).

  6. Lay one sheet of puff pastry on the bottom plate of the pie maker.

  11. When the timer is finished, carefully remove the pies and snap to be individual. Place the pies into the cinnamon sugar mixture and coat each pie well before serving.
    TIP – If you prefer a simpler flavour, swap the brown sugar out for caster sugar, remove the cinnamon and nutmeg and add 1 tsp. of vanilla.
