Can you just imagine these Berry Best Fried Pies with custard and a dab of cream on top. The sound of that makes my mouth water. My grandsons just like taking them plain in there school lunches. If you make the Berry Best Fried Pies for school I always make them a bit smaller. I think I better go and make some Berry Best Fried Pies now for dinner.

Place 1 tablespoon blueberry filling on each circle and fold over and seal edges with a fork.
