Hand Pie Recipes

Hand pie recipes keep baking on a quick and easy level.

Now, there’s nothing wrong with a lot of complicated steps in a dessert, but that just doesn’t work into my lifestyle or cooking skill level, so I go for simple, organic, and quick.

Easy Peach Pies

You’ll serve these easy peach pies warm or you can leave on your counter, put on a pretty cake plate and cover, and eat a room temperature. When I serve them warm, I’ll top with something.

Most folks will go for ice cream, but as a change, why don’t you try what I’ve used, that’s gotten rave reviews, creme fraiche! Yes, it’s not as ‘sweet’ and it adds that bit of creaminess that you might be craving.

And, try to find peaches in season like sweet Georgia or South Carolina peaches or Palisades peaches!

Ingredients

• Preheat oven to 375
• 3 peaches, wash and clean peaches, slice in halves, yielding six halves, skin on
• 1 large lemon, juice only
• 1/2 cup coconut sugar
• 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
• 6 Tbl. butter, salted, chilled, cut into six pieces
• 3 (3 x 9") puff pastry pieces, cut into six equal size pieces, about room temperature
• 1 egg
• 2 Tbl. sugar
• Powdered Sugar Garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Put the peaches, meat side down, in a pie plate with the lemon juice. Coat with juices to keep the peaches from turning brown
2. On a parchment paper lined cookie sheet, place the six pieces of chilled butter. Leave adequate space between each.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon.
4. Put about two tablespoons of the brown sugar mixture atop each pat of butter. Scoop in and around all sides.
5. Place a peach half, meat side down, on each mound of butter/sugar. Press down gently.
6. Take a piece of the puff pastry and mold around the peach tucking in and making a 'tent'.
7. Using a pastry brush, coat each of the puff pastry peaches with egg wash (white or white and yolk blended). Sprinkle equal amounts of sugar on and around each of the mounds.
8. Bake in a preheated 375 oven for about 22 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
9. Remove and let the peach pie mounds cool a few minutes. You can then take a flexible spatula and remove each.

Notes

The butter/brown sugar mixture will ooze during baking. No problem. That will make a caramelized like brittle 'candy' in and around the peach mound.

If you don't use all the brown sugar/cinnamon mixture, just put it in an airtight container and use for something else, like toast!
