Air Fryer Hand Pies Recipes

Steps:

• Combine apples, butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a non-stick skillet. Cook over medium heat until apples have softened, about 5 minutes.
• Dissolve cornstarch in cold water. Stir into apple mixture and cook until sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Remove apple pie filling from heat and set aside to cool while you prepare the crust.
• Unroll pie crust on a lightly floured surface and roll out slightly to smooth the surface of the dough. Cut the dough into rectangles small enough so that 2 can fit in your air fryer at one time. Repeat with remaining crust until you have 8 equal rectangles, re-rolling some of the scraps of dough if needed.
• Wet the outer edges of 4 rectangles with water and place some apple filling in the center about 1/2-inch from the edges. Roll out the remaining 4 rectangles so that they are slightly larger than the filled ones. Place these rectangles on top of the filling; crimp the edges with a fork to seal. Cut 4 small slits in the tops of the pies.
• Spray the basket of an air fryer with cooking spray. Brush the tops of 2 pies with grapeseed oil and transfer pies to the air fryer basket using a spatula.
• Insert basket and set the temperature to 385 degrees F (195 degrees C). Bake until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Remove pies from the basket and repeat with the remaining 2 pies.
• Mix together powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl. Brush glaze on warm pies and allow to dry. Serve pies warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Roll out each circle of pie dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut circles into the dough using a 3 1/2-inch round cookie cutter to make 16 circles (8 from each dough round). If you don't have a 3 1/2-inch cookie cutter, you can use the mouth of a large cup or wide-mouth jar.
• Moisten the edge of a circle with water, then add 2 tablespoons blueberry pie filling in the center (or however much can fit while still leaving the edges bare).
• Place another dough circle on top of the filling and pinch the edges of the two dough rounds together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges to secure them further. Add a slit in the top of the crust with a sharp knife. Repeat with the remaining dough circles until you have 8 round pies.
• Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place pies in the basket in a single layer (you may need to work in batches). Spray the tops of the pies with more cooking spray, and sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar.
• Cook in the air fryer until golden brown, about 9 minutes.

Steps:

• Roll out each circle of pie dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut circles into the dough using a 3-inch round cookie cutter to make 16 circles (8 from each dough round).
• Moisten the edge of a circle with water, then add 1 tablespoon cherry pie filling in the center. Fold the circle in half and pinch the edges of the dough together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges to secure them further. Add a slit in the top of the crust with a sharp knife. Repeat with the remaining dough circles.
• Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and spray the air fryer bucket with cooking spray. Place pies in the basket in a single layer (you may need to work in batches). Spray the tops of the pies with more cooking spray, and sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar.
• Cook in the air fryer until golden brown, about 9 minutes.
