I would make them fairly small (personal pie-sized) and use a filling that doesn't need to be cooked in the oven to set. The main limiting factors, I think, would be structural integrity and heating the filling to the center. You could set it on a ring (like the rim of a spring-form pan) to support it better during cooking. Now, a four dimensional hyper pie, on the other hand...
If you’re not cooking the filling, then do a teflon ballon that you put the crust on. Cook. Remove balloon. Then pipe in ready to ready to set chocolate cream.
One of those spherical ice cube makers but made of cast iron, a little like those little waffle makers.
I don’t think those will work, you want the outer surface to be crispy. The dough’s gotta go on the outside of the sphere.
I would bake it on a pizza stone to ensure an even bake.
Has nobody here ever done this? It comes out perfectly cooked.
You cook a spherical pie on a pizza stone? Do tell.
I cook a circular pie on a pizza stone.
If we don't care what the filling is you could just use sticky rice.
