Ingredients
- 2 inch deep dish frozen pie crust thawed
- 15 tablespoons 1 cup minus a tablespoon canned lemon pie filling or lemon curd for a stronger lemon taste
- 1 large egg beaten
Glaze
- ¼ cup icing sugar
- 2 teaspoons whole milk or lemon juice for a stronger lemon taste
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 350F.
- Working with 1 pie crust at a time, place on a lightly floured surface and roll out only to flatten (leave the thickness the same). Cut 1 circle 5 ½” (we used a glass bowl) wide and work the remaining dough back together and start again. (Note: you may want to add a splash of milk to help the left-over dough stick together easier). You should get 3 out of each with minimal scraps.
- Place 2.5 tablespoons of lemon pie filling to the center leaving about ½” untouched. (Note: you will want work with 1 at a time to ensure the lemon pie filling doesn’t spread to the edges too quickly. If your crust is on the drier side, you can egg wash the rim prior to folding and pinching to help it stick better).
- Using a fork, crimp the edges to keep the filling secure. Coat in a thin layer of egg wash and bake for 7-9 minutes until the tops are golden brown. (Note: Depending on the size of your air fryer basket you may need to work in batches as you do not want the pies to overlap).
- Remove and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack prior to adding glaze. TO create your glaze, whisk together ¼ cup of icing sugar and 2 teaspoons of milk or lemon juice.
- Drizzle glaze onto pies and enjoy.
Notes
- Double the recipe: Two pie crusts only make 6 air fryer-fried hand pies. If you are making them to share for a get-together or a bake sale, this recipe is easy to double or even triple. Just remember to air fryer in batches.
- Let them cool: Allow the hand pies to cool completely before you drizzle the glaze on top. If they are too warm, they will melt.
- Use turbinado sugar: Don’t want to make the glaze? Sprinkle turbinado sugar over the top of the warm pies for sweetness and texture.
