Hi Jennifer! We're glad you enjoyed this technique! The recipe for mini pies given in this article includes only the weight for the pie crumbs, not the liquid, so your final amount of crumbs per pie will be slightly higher than 40 grams per pie. You're welcome to reduce the amount of crumbs slightly if you'd like but as you found, it also works out just fine to have slightly more dough per pie. Happy baking!
