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.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, sweet strawberries for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have pie crust mix, you can make your own using all-purpose flour, butter, and salt.
  • Be sure to chill the pie dough before rolling it out. This will help prevent it from becoming too sticky.
  • When filling the hand pies, be sure to leave a little space around the edges so that the filling doesn't leak out.
  • Bake the hand pies until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Serve the hand pies warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Strawberry hand pies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious snack or dessert that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for something sweet and satisfying, give strawberry hand pies a try!
