An Introduction to your Sunbeam  
Pie Magic 4  
Congratulations on the purchase of your  
Sunbeam Pie Magic 4.  
With your Sunbeam Pie Magic 4, you can  
turn any ingredients, left-overs or canned  
food into delicious pies – great for appetisers,  
meals, desserts, supper or snacks.  
Now you and the whole family can make  
golden brown, crispy pies at home, using your  
choice of delicious and imaginative fillings.  
Make up to four perfect pies every time ...  
it’s magic!  
You will be amazed at the variety of pies you  
can make, chicken, beef, pork, vegetable and  
seafood pies, as well as fruit and sweet pies.  
Note: During cooking, you may notice a  
whistling sound. This is normal and is due to  
steam escaping from the pies.  
Your Sunbeam Pie Magic 4 is so versatile you  
can even make muffins, cup cakes, quiche  
and cheesecakes.  
Before using your Sunbeam  
Pie Magic 4  
Before using your Sunbeam Pie Magic 4 for  
the first time, the non-stick plates must be  
seasoned to protect the non-stick surface.  
After this initial seasoning, there is no need  
to season the plates after each use as the  
pastry leaves the plates slightly seasoned.  
Plug the power cord into a 230/240 volt  
power outlet and turn the power ON. Preheat  
the pie maker for 5 minutes. Season the  
plates by applying a thin coat of cooking  
oil onto the surface and rub in with paper  
towelling.  
Note: When using your Sunbeam Pie Magic  
4 for the first time, you may notice a fine  
smoke haze being emitted. This is normal  
and is due to the initial heating of the  
internal components.  
Alternatively add oil to paper towelling and  
rub over the cooking plates.

Makingpies in your Sunbeam  
Pie Magic 4  
What type of pastry can be used?  
(a) TOP  
There is a wide selection of ready rolled  
pastry available in your supermarket freezer,  
such as shortcrust, puff, butter puff and  
wholemeal pastry. These pastries give great  
results and are handy to keep in your freezer.  
We recommend using Puff Pastry for the top  
combined with a Shortcrust Pastry for the base.  
(b) BASE  
Figure 1  
However, shortcrust pastry or puff pastry can  
be used for both the tops and bases of your  
pies.  
Forming the pastry.  
Using both hands, overlap the pastry slits by  
approximately 15mm. See Figure 2. Press  
the slits gently to ensure they join properly.  
For a light and more buttery taste, use  
butter puff pastry for your pastry top,  
combined with a shortcrust pastry for your  
base. This combination is ideal for desserts.  
Homemade pastry can also be used.  
Preheat the Pie Magic 4 for 5 minutes, and  
defrost your frozen ready rolled pastry while  
preparing your pies.  
Cutting the pastry.  
Use the special pie cutter provided to cut  
the pastry tops and bases for your pies. The  
small cutter is for the top and the large  
cutter is for the base. See Figure 1.  
Figure 2  
To cut your pastry pieces, position the cutter  
on a flat sheet of pastry and cut by pressing  
down into the pastry. Ensure the cut is  
smooth around the edges.  
Continue overlapping pastry slits until a  
pastry base is formed. See Figure 3.  
Note: For best results, frozen pastry should be  
used as soon as it is thawed.

Making pies in your Sunbeam Pie Magic 4 continued  
Place the pastry base in the preheated pie  
maker and carefully press into the base.  
See Figure 4.  
For more recipes see “101 Great Pie Ideas”  
recipe booklet provided with your Sunbeam  
Pie Magic 4.  
Cooking the pies.  
Place the pastry tops over the filling and  
close the lid. Cook the pies for approximately  
6 minutes. If you prefer extra browning, we  
recommend you cook for 8 minutes.  
Note: During cooking you may notice a  
whistling sound. This is due to steam  
escaping from the pies.  
Remove your pies using a plastic utensil.  
DO NOT USE METAL UTENSILS AS THESE WILL  
SCRATCH THE NON-STICK SURFACE. Wipe the  
plates clean after making each pie.  
Figure 4  
Caution: Only touch the pastry as the pie  
maker will be very hot.  
Using left-over pastry.  
Make more pies, garnishes and decorations  
with the left-over pastry.  
Adding the filling.  
Any ingredients you have in your kitchen,  
left-overs and canned food make tempting  
pie fillings.  
Lightly knead the left-over pieces into a ball  
and roll out to approximately 3mm thick.  
Pre-cook your pie fillings, particularly if  
using fresh meat or vegetable ingredients.  
Ingredients such as fruit and canned food  
can be used without pre-cooking.  
Hint: It is easier to roll pastry between 2  
sheets of grease proof paper.  
To make garnishes and decorations, cut the  
pastry into any shape, such as leaves.  
Ensure all ingredients are cut into small and  
even pieces to allow them to heat through.  
Place the shape on the pastry top before  
closing the lid.  
Note: Do not use liquid ingredients such as  
sauces, gravies and custard on their own or  
in large amounts, as they will overflow and  
make the pastry soggy. Always combine with  
solid ingredients.  
Note: It is recommended that only shortcrust  
ready rolled pastry be re-rolled. Also,  
keep the pastry covered to prevent drying  
and cracking.  
Spoon your pre-cooked filling into the pastry  
base. As a general rule, use ¹/ cup of filling,  
³
per pie. Do not overfill your pies.

Making pies in your Sunbeam Pie Magic 4 continued  
Pre-cutting pastry.  
Cut the pie tops and bases using the cutter  
and trim the crusts.  
Pastry can be pre-cut and stored in the  
freezer so that anyone can make pies at their  
convenience. After cutting up the pastry,  
separate each piece with a layer of plastic.  
Cover completely with plastic and return to  
the freezer.  
Spread one side of the bread with butter  
or margarine. Make the pies as previously  
instructed, with the buttered side of the  
bread on the outside to prevent sticking.  
Cook for 6 minutes.  
Hint: Avoid using liquid fillings as they tend  
to make the bread soggy.  
Using bread.  
Bread can be used as a substitute for pastry.  
The best results are achieved using sandwich  
bread. Avoid using toast style bread as it is  
too thick.  
Note: When using a non-pastry base in your  
pie maker it will be necessary to season the  
plates with a little oil, butter or margarine  
Defrosting and reheating pies  
Defrosting.  
Oven: Preheat oven to 180ºC.  
Room temperature: pies will defrost in  
approximately 1 hour.
