Air Fryer Peach Hand Pies
Description
The recipe begins with thawed refrigerated pie crust rolled out and cut into 5-inch circles. Each circle is filled with about two tablespoons of peach pie filling, leaving a small border. Edges are wet with water, folded into half-moons, and sealed by pinching and crimping. After an egg wash and sugar topping, three small slits are cut on top for steam release. The pies are cooked in a preheated air fryer in a single layer sprayed with oil, promoting a crisp exterior. This method yields hand pies with tender, flaky crusts and juicy peach interiors.
Ingredients
- 2 pie crust refrigerator
- 1 1/2 cups peach pie filling
- 1 egg large
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar or brown sugar, white
- cooking spray
Instructions
- Start by planning in advance and thaw the pie crusts per package instructions.
- When ready to make the hand pies, roll out the pie dough on a lightly floured surface, and using a cookie cutter cut out 3 or more 5-inch circles from each crust. Discard the scraps.
- Add about 2 tablespoons of peach pie filling to the center of the circles leaving about a ½-inch border.
- After that, dip a fingertip in water and run it around the edges of the circles. Fold them to create a half-moon shape and pinch the edges together. Crimp the edges together using a fork, as shown in the photo collage.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg with the water and brush the surface of the hand pies with the egg mixture.
- Sprinkle with sugar, either white or brown and make 3 small incision cuts on the top, this helps the steam escape.
- Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees F and spray the basket with oil spray.
- Arrange the pies, in one single layer not touching each other. If needed cook in batches.
- Air fry for 9-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from the air fryer and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
