How to cook deliciously - Fruit-Filled Hand Pies
1. Stage
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat; set aside.
2. Stage
In a large bowl, mix together fruit, sugar, orange zest, orange juice, salt, and cornstarch; mix until well combined. Set fruit mixture aside.
3. Stage
On a lightly floured work surface, roll out one piece of dough to a 16- by 11-inch rectangle. Trim to 15 by 10 inches. Cut into six 5-inch squares. With a dry pastry brush, sweep off excess flour. Working with one square at a time, place 2 tablespoons of reserved fruit mixture in the center. Brush two connecting edges with beaten egg and fold on the diagonal over the filling, pressing to seal. Repeat process with remaining squares.
4. Stage
Repeat entire process with remaining Pate Brisee. Place hand pies on prepared baking sheet. Brush pies with remaining egg wash and sprinkle with sanding sugar. Using a pair of clean scissors, snip the center of one side of each hand pie to allow steam to escape.
5. Stage
Transfer baking sheets to oven and bake until crusts are golden brown and filling is bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm. Looking for more dessert ideas? Check out our homemade chocolate chip cookie recipes, apple pie recipes, and chocolate cake recipes.
