I’m often scrambling when my kids ask for dessert. Odd, right? You would think our house would have trays of cookies and cakes and fudge just laying around. But reality is, I usually only bake once a week. And it’s often around events, so that treats aren’t sitting around for me to eat. Especially during the school year when I’m home alone with dessert on the counter, begging to be eaten.
But in the summer, I find that with all the kids in and out during the day, the extra cookies and candies get eaten by others. So at dessert time, there is nothing but ice cream in the freezer.
If you’re looking for a dessert that is quick to whip up, but can also impress family and friends, these Peach Hand Pies may just be your answer. With 5 simple ingredients, and NO FRYER needed, you can have the comfort of a a peach pie, with the convenience of a cookie! And there won’t be any left just lying around because they will be gobbled up quickly!
Peach Hand Pies
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 boxes (14.1 oz each) refrigerated pie crust
- 1 can (21 oz) peach pie filling
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg white, beaten
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Remove pie crusts from package and allow to come to room temperature while you prepare filling.
- Dump pie filling in a shallow bowl and dice peaches using a fork and knife (you want them to be small pieces). Add in cinnamon and mix until blended. Set aside.
- Unroll pie crusts and cut 6 circles from each crust using a 4-inch biscuit cutter. You may have to re-roll the scraps to get the 6th circle.
- Using a 1 tbsp cookie scoop, drop peach pie filling into center of each pie crust circle. Fold in half and pinch edges completely. Fold pinched edges over and press with the tines of a fork to seal. Poke hand pie with fork once, to prevent bursting.
