Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 package store bought pie dough thawed
- 1 cup blueberry pie filling homemade or store bought
- 1 large egg white Optional...may substitute with cooking spray for vegan recipe.
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the pie dough
- Spray the air fryer tray with cooking spray. Whisk together the egg white and water in a small bowl and set aside. Unroll the thawed pie crust dough. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough slightly. Take a circle cookie cutter or biscuit cutter to create palm size circles. Save any excess dough to roll back out and create more circles.
Step 2: Make the hand pies
- To make the pies, lay one dough circle on a flat surface and place just under a tablespoon of filling in the center. Place another pie circle on top to sandwich the filling. Then, use a fork to seal the edges of the dough. Prick the middle of the hand pie a couple times with the fork to allow steam to release while cooking. Repeat with remaining dough circles.
Step 3: Air fry the blueberry hand pies
- Lightly brush the tops of your hand pies with the egg white mixture (or cooking spray) and sprinkle a little turbinado sugar on them. Place several in your air fryer basket making sure to leave space between them to allow the air to flow. They may need to be cooked in batches depending on the size of your air fryer. Cook on the air fry setting at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the hand pies are cooked through with a golden brown crust. (Note: These were cooked in a Cosori 5.8qt air fryer. Air fryer cook times may vary depending on the brand and air fryer size)
Step 4: Serve and enjoy!
- Remove basket from air fryer. Then, transfer hand pies to baking rack. Allow to cool slightly, then serve and enjoy!
