Where are my math geeks with a sweet tooth? Let’s celebrate Pi Day with pie crust Pi shaped cookies!

Pie Crust Cookies for Pi Day
Pin this super simple Pie crust cookie recipe perfect for Pi Day cookies!

Who’s prepping for the next holiday… I don’t mean Easter or St. Patrick’s Day. The geeky cool holiday of Pi Day comes first, on 3/14, which represents the approximation of pi as 3.14,

I am not a fan of traditional pies, a very common way to celebrate Pi Day. I am a fan of cookies, though. So today I made pie crust cookies for pi day!

Pi Day Cookies Using Pie Crust

These are fun cookies to make with leftover pie crust or make a whole batch of them to celebrate March 14th.

  • pi cookie cutter
  • rolling pin
  • pastry brush
  • pie crust dough
  • cinnamon
  • sugar
  • butter, melted
Easy Pi Day Cookies
Roll out the pie crust on a silicone mat to prep for your pi (greek letter) shaped cookies.

Start with your favorite pie crust recipe or make it super easy by using a pre-made pie crust. Can anyone guess which one I chose? 😉

Pi shaped cookie cutter for pi day cookies
Use a Pi shaped cookie cutter to cut out as many pi shaped cookies you can.

I managed to get 21 cookies out of my 1 pre-made pie crust. I just kept rolling the left over the dough.

easy Pie Crust Pi Day Cookies
Line your cookie sheet with parchment paper for easy clean up.

I brushed each cookie lightly with melted butter (an egg wash would work too) and then sprinkled with my sugar & cinnamon mixture.  Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes, depending on how thick you make your cookies.
