I'd still process for the 10 minutes. Usually it's a 25% drop in processing time when moving from quarts to pints. When canning green beans, whole tomatoes (cold pack), corn, peaches and the like, I use the rule of thumb of 4 hours for quarts and 3 hours for pints. And NO, I do not use a pressure canner nor do I want to hear about it!
