Air Fryer Peach Hand Pies

Ingredients

• 2 refrigerator pie crusts
• 1 1/2 cups peach pie filling
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar (or brown sugar)
• Cooking spray

Instructions

1. 1

   that the dough: Start by planning in advance and thaw the pie crusts per package instructions.

2. 2

   roll: 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.

3. 3

   add pie filling: Add about 2 tablespoons of peach pie filling to the center of the circles leaving about a ½-inch border.

4. 4

   make the hand pies: 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.

5. 5

   make the egg wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg with the water and brush the surface of the hand pies with the egg mixture.

6. 6

   add the sugar: Sprinkle with sugar, either white or brown and make 3 small incision cuts on the top, this helps the steam escape.

7. 7

   prep the air fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees F and spray the basket with oil spray.

8. 8

   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.
