Preheat oven to 350 F.
Spray three 5 inch pie pans with a non-stick cooking spray.

Place the pie pans on a cookie sheet and bake for ten minutes.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar until thick.
Mix in the flour, butter, cutie zest. and juice until thoroughly combined.
Pour into prepared pie pans, distributing evenly between the three pans.
Bake pies for 10 minutes.
Lower oven temperature to 350 F and bake for another 25 minutes or until custard is set, but still a little bit jiggly.
Cool for at least three hours.
Top with candied orange slices.
Slice or dig right into the pie with your cutie pie!
