Spray or grease a large cookie sheet and set it aside.

For a homemade pie crust, you may need to lightly flour your dough before rolling.

Roll out the pie crust (If using a refrigerated pie crust, let the pie crust sit in the box out of the refrigerator for 15 minutes).

Use your favorite or seasonal cookie cutters to cut out shapes in the pie crust and place each pie crust cookie shape on the greased cookie sheet.

When you’ve cut out every section of the pie crust, form the leftover pie crust scraps into a ball.

Use a rolling pin to flatten the dough.

Cut out more shapes with a cookie cutter.

Repeat steps 2-6 until you’ve used up all the dough.

Whisk together the egg and milk in a small bowl to create the egg wash.

Brush the egg wash on top of the pie crust cookie cutouts and sprinkle with sugar or your desired spice (i.e., cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar, etc.)

Bake on the prepared baking sheet at 350 degrees F until golden brown, about 10-12 minutes in a conventional oven. 5-7 minutes in the Instant Pot Omni Plus oven.

Optional – Sprinkle warm baked pie crust cookies more cinnamon sugar or melted butter for a deliciously sweet topping!

Serve pie crust cookies right away, warm or at room temperature, from an airtight container.
