Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Peaches, peeled, pitted, and diced
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 discs Pie dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for rolling out dough)
- 1 unit Egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 2 tablespoons Coarse sugar (optional, for sprinkling)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly and set the filling aside.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pie dough discs until they are about 1/8-inch thick.
Using a 4- to 5-inch round cutter (like a bowl or cookie cutter), cut out circles from the dough. Re-roll scraps as needed to make a total of 8 circles.
Place a heaping tablespoon of the peach filling in the center of each dough circle. Be careful not to overfill to prevent leakage.
Fold the dough over the filling into a half-moon shape and press the edges together to seal. Crimp the edges with a fork for a decorative touch.
Transfer the hand pies to the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them. Use a sharp knife to cut small slits in the tops of the pies for ventilation.
Brush the tops of the pies with the beaten egg for a golden finish. If desired, sprinkle with coarse sugar for added sweetness and texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pies are golden brown and bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow the pies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Just Peachy Individual Hand Pies!
