Apple Hand Pies

I love these apple hand pies! They are so cute and delicious. They remind me of my childhood when we would go on a road trip and each get to pick a treat out at the gas station to eat along the way. My dad would always pick out those little hand pies that came in a few different flavors! So when I made these, they totally took me back and made me want to make some of my own to bring on a family road trip! In fact, while you’re at it, go ahead and try making these Air Fryer Hand Pies, and these Blueberries and Cream Hand Pies… They are amazingly delicious as well! The filling on these is absolutely divine! It is thick and has the more amazing apple cinnamon flavor. You know that I love the filling for a pie and this one is no exception. You know it’s that good when you just want to eat it plain with a spoon! And the crust on these is absolute perfection. It has just the right amount of sweetness and the flaky texture cannot be beaten! Go ahead and try these apple hand pies out! you will always want some on hand (see what I did there??) to eat whenever you want! Enjoy!

It is what makes it so delicious! Salt: The salt will enhance the flavors of the other ingredients. Egg yolk: Using an egg yolk will help your pie crust to have that golden brown crust.

Filling

Dough

Assembly

No homemade dough? No problem: If you want to skip the process of making your own pie dough, don’t sweat it. Skip it and press forward with the pre-made stuff. This recipe is quick and easy with store bought pie dough! COLD dough: Pie dough can be intimidating, but one of the best ways to work with it is to make sure it stays nice and cold. If you feel like the dough is getting too pliable or too soft, set it in the fridge for 10-15 minutes so that it can chill.Choosing apples for a recipe: There are several different types of apples that hold up well to baking. Granny Smith apples are nice and tart and hold their shape, while Honeycrisp are sweeter, larger and hold their shape just as well. Braeburn or Pink Lady apples are bursting with flavor and also a popular choice!Less is more with the filling: Go easy on the filling in each pie and use only 2 tablespoons. This is just the right amount for the hand pies because then they don’t burst and make a mess all over.

Room temperature: Store the hand pies in an airtight container on your counter. They will last like this for 4-5 days. Refrigerator: Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container in your fridge. They can last in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
