STRAWBERRY HAND PIES



Strawberry Hand Pies image

Fresh strawberries are available year-round in many regions of the country, but their peak season is from April to June. This recipe for hand pies, or "half moon" pies, offers a delicious way to take advantage of their abundance. Look for evenly colored, bright-red, plump strawberries whose green caps are still attached.

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups strawberries, hulled and cut in half or quarters, depending on size
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
All-purpose flour, for work surface
1/2 recipe Pate Brisee for Strawberry Hand Pies
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Sanding sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a Silpat (a French nonstick baking mat). In a medium bowl, add strawberries, sugar, and cornstarch; stir to combine, set aside.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll dough into a large rectangle, about 1/8 inch thick. Using a 5-inch cookie cutter, cut out 6 rounds. Transfer rounds to prepared baking sheet.
  • Place about 2 tablespoons of the strawberry mixture onto one-half of each round. Lightly brush egg around the edge of the covered half of each round. Fold remaining dough over to enclose, forming a half moon. Gently press edges together to seal. Brush the tops of each pie with egg. Using a paring knife, slash the top of each pie. Sprinkle generously with sanding sugar.
  • Bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer pies to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving. Or let cool completely, and store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 4 days.

MINI STRAWBERRY PIES

These freeform pies are a fun way to learn to decorate with pie dough-and their cute look is super easy to achieve! Focus on keeping the bases of the tarts similar in size, so they bake and brown evenly. Sparkling sugar gives the edges of the crust a beautiful glisten, but turbinado sugar or granulated sugar will work in its place.

Time 1h5m

Yield Makes 10 pies

Number Of Ingredients 9

One 17.3-ounce package puff pastry, thawed (2 sheets, about 9-3/4-by-10-1/2-inches)
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Dash freshly ground nutmeg
About 30 medium strawberries, hulled and sliced 1/4 inch thick (about 12 ounces) (2 1/2 cups)
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
Sparkling or sanding sugar, for finishing

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out each sheet of puff pastry to flatten slightly and lengthen to be about 10-by-12-inches. By hand, cut 5 strawberry shapes with a paring knife from each sheet. They should be about 3 1/2 inches at the widest (top portion), and about 3 inches long. Reserve the scrap pieces of dough off to the side.
  • Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheets. Poke holes in the center portion of the dough with a fork (don't dock the outer 1/2 inch all the way around).
  • In a medium bowl, stir the sugar, cornstarch and nutmeg together to combine. Add the strawberries, and toss well until they are evenly coated.
  • Arrange the strawberries in the center portion of the dough, overlapping to fit as many as you comfortably can while keeping them in an even, fairly flat layer. Leave the outer 1/2 inch of dough around the outside edge uncovered.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water to combine. Use the tip of a paring knife to cut pieces from the remaining scrap dough to emulate the tops of the strawberries. Don't worry if they're all different-so are real strawberries! Use a small amount of the egg wash to attach the stems to the top portion of each pastry, overlapping a portion of the strawberries.
  • Brush the egg wash on all of the exposed crust and garnish generously with sparkling or sanding sugar.
  • Bake until the strawberries are tender and the crust is deeply golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Cool at least 10 minutes before serving.
