Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lay out two baking sheets and line them with parchment paper.
- If working with fresh peaches, peel and pit the peaches. Then dice them into ¼-inch cubes. If working with frozen peaches, thaw, then dice and cut into ¼-inch cubes. Place a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced peaches, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice and zest, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to coat, then sauté the peaches for 5 to 8 minutes until very soft. Turn the heat off and set aside.
- Roll out the circular pie crusts. Use a pizza cutter or large chefs knife to trim off the rounded edges creating 9 x 9-inch squares. Then cut each square into three long 3-inch strips.
- Dollop 2 tablespoons of peach pie filling on one end of each strip. Brush egg white around the pie filling, then fold the crust over the pie filling to create small 3 x 4.5 inch rectangles. Use a fork to press and crimp the edges together all the way around each rectangle, making sure the hand pies are well sealed. Move them to the baking sheets.
- Once all the pop tarts are filled and sealed, use a small knife to cut a vent in the top of each crust. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until golden brown.
- Allow the hand pies to cool. Then set out a small bowl. Whisk together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and lemon juice. It should be the consistency of school glue. If it’s too thick, add a little extra lemon juice or water to the mixture.
- Once the pies are cool, drizzle the glaze over the top of each pop tart. Allow the glaze to dry. Then serve.
Notes
- Store the peach hand pies in an airtight container, and keep on the counter for up to 3 days.
