Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375℉.

Arrange 18 frozen unbaked tart shells on a large baking sheet. Fill each of the tart shells with the pie filling while it is still hot, distributing it evenly between all 18 tart shells.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges of the tart shells are golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, or let cool fully.
