Easy Homemade Apple Hand Pies Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 cups apple pie filling, or as needed
• 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon, or more to taste
• 0.5 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crusts, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon white sugar, or to taste
• salt to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the apple pie filling, 3 tablespoons of cinnamon, and allspice until well mixed. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.
3. Unroll each pie crust and cut into 4 equal pieces, resulting in 8 dough pieces. Place 4 dough pieces on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the apple filling onto the center of each dough piece, leaving a 1/4 inch border. Top with the remaining dough pieces, pressing the edges to seal. Roll and crimp the edges with a fork. Cut 3 small slits in the top of each pie for ventilation.
4. Brush the egg wash over the top of each pie, including the edges. Sprinkle the tops with a mixture of cinnamon, sugar, and a pinch of salt.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until the hand pies are golden brown, approximately 15 to 18 minutes.
6. Let the hand pies cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
