These easy apple hand pies are made with just two ingredients and in less than 10 minutes in the Air Fryer! Don't have an Air Fryer, we share how to make them in the oven, too!
Cut circles into the pie dough using a hand pie mold or a bowl and a knife. Scoop the apple filling onto the dough.
Fold the dough over in the mold and seal. Continue until you've used all of the pie dough. About 3-4 pies.
Add parchment paper to the Air Fryer before placing the hand pies, or spray the Air Fryer with non stick cooking spray. Cook for 6 minutes, turning the pies about halfway through the cook time.
COOKING HAND PIES WITHOUT AN AIR FRYER
Heat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cut the dough with the hand pie mold or using a bowl and a knife. Scoop the apple pie filling on the dough and then fold and seal the edges.
Bake in the oven for 22-25 minutes or until golden brown.
MAKING HAND PIES WITHOUT THE PIE MOLD
If you don't have a pie mold, use a bowl to cut circle into the pie dough and then a knife to trim around the bowl.
Beat an egg in a small bowl and brush the edges of the dough circles with the egg wash.
Scoop the pie filling into the middle of the pie dough. Fold over the dough. Use a fork to pinch and seal the edges.
Air Fry or bake the hand pies as instructed above.
Notes
Save any remaining hand pies in an airtight container and place them into the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Serve the hand pies all by themselves, or add them to a bowl with a scoop of ice cream.
Consider using different pie fillings such as lemon, blueberry, strawberry, cherry, and more.
