INGREDIENTS

  • 1 large egg, slightly beaten
  • 2 tbsp milk, divided
  • 1 package (14-ounce) refrigerated pie dough
  • 1 can cherry pie filling
  • 1-1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar

INSTRUCTIONS

    • Generously coat the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
    • Beat egg with 1 Tablespoon of milk and set aside.
    • Carefully roll out each package 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 round of pie dough).
  • Moisten each edge of a circle with water, then add 1 tablespoon cherry pie filling to the center. Carefully fold the circle in half and pinch the edges of the dough together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges of each circle to secure them further. Add a slit in the top of the crust with a sharp knife. Repeat with all remaining dough circles.
  • Brush the top of each hand pie with prepared egg wash.
  • Working in batches, place several hand pies in the air fryer and cook at 360 degrees F on the air fry setting for 5 minutes then flip the hand pies and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until the hand pies are golden brown and cooked throughout. Set aside hand pies to cool on a wire rack and repeat with the remaining pies.
  • While pies are cooking, stir together confectioners’ sugar and remaining milk to make a glaze.
  • Once pies have cooled, drizzle or brush glaze across the outside of the hand pies. Allow glaze to set before serving, enjoy!
