  • 1 tsp. of balsamic vinegar

  • 5. Add water and sugar to caramelize the fruit, followed by cinnamon and balsamic vinegar
  • 6. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes until the fruits are softened
  • 7. Butter the individual molds and pour a little sugar inside, which will adhere to the butter, tap and remove the excess sugar
  • 8. Place the pieces of fruit at the bottom of the molds, along with a teaspoon of the caramelized juice
  • 9. Roll out the pie crust and cut circles the size of small molds
