Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with coconut oil.
In a medium bowl, mix the almond flour, melted coconut oil, egg, salt, and vanilla extract until a dough forms.
Divide the dough evenly among the 12 muffin cups. Press the dough firmly into the base and up the sides to form mini pie shells.
Bake the crusts for about 10 minutes, until slightly golden, then let them cool completely.
While the crusts are baking, prepare the filling. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the mixed berries and lemon juice.
Cook for about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is soft and begins to break down.
Remove from heat and stir in the ground cinnamon and chia seeds. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to thicken.
Once thickened, spoon the fruit mixture into the cooled pie shells, filling each about 3/4 full.
Sprinkle the dried coconut flakes evenly over the top of each mini pie for garnish.
Bake the assembled pies for an additional 10 minutes, or until the coconut is lightly toasted.
Remove from the oven and let the mini pies cool before carefully removing them from the muffin tin.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
