Peachy Blueberry Hand Pies / #BlueberryWeek

Tweet

Today I am sharing a recipe for Peachy Blueberry Hand Pies as part of #BlueberryWeek! This is a simple and quick-to-make recipe. That is because I used pre-made pie crust that you can buy at the grocery. I actually prefer to make my own pie crust when I need it, but life is often times busy and complicated, and sometimes making pie crust is just not on the schedule. But being busy is not an acceptable reason to not be able to enjoy these cute and tasty Peachy Blueberry Hand Pies! 

Don't forget to check out all the tasty recipes from my fellow #BlueberryWeek bloggers. The list is at the bottom of this page and there are a lot of  incredible recipes to check out!

Peachy Blueberry Hand Pies 
(makes 8-10 hand pies)
(printable recipe at end of page)

1 pint Fresh Blueberries
2 pounds Fresh Peaches
1/2 of a medium lemon, juiced
1/4 teaspoon Vanilla
1/4 cup light Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon  Cornstarch
2 tablespoons Butter, melted
1 box pre-made Pie Crust Dough
1 3 1/2" Circle Cookie Cutter 
1/4 cup sugar for sprinkling on top 

Peel and chop your peaches into smaller than bite size pieces. Add the chopped peaches and the blueberries into a large bowl. Add the lemon juice, vanilla, light brown sugar and the corn starch to the bowl and mix together. 

Roll out the pie dough so it is smooth. Use the cookie cutter to cut out the pie circles.  I used a 3 1/2" circle, but you can use larger or even smaller. The problem with the smaller circle is that it can only handle a very small amount of filling, making your pie mostly crust. But experiment with sizes to find the one you like! 

Use a brush to spread the melted butter around all of the dough circles. This will help the two pieces of dough stay together when they are baking.

 Place the filling into the middle of the dough.

Place another circle of dough on top of the fruit. Use a fork to go around the edge of the pie and crimp the two sides together. Use the tip of a knife to put a small slit in the top of the dough to allow heat to escape. Sprinkle sugar on top.

You could also use brown sugar on top, if you want. It gives a great flavor to the pie. Place the pies in the oven and bake at 350 degrees for approximately 8-10 minutes. They don't take long, but keep an eye on them for the last couple minutes, in case you need to add more time.

 Enjoy!

Apple Hand Pies with an Oatmeal Crust / #appleweek

Tweet

For my final recipe of #appleweek, I wanted to make something traditonal, but special. I had so much fun creating these recipes, and I hope you will make and enjoy them! This Apple Hand Pie with an Oatmeal Crust is made with cooked apple pieces wrapped in an easy oatmeal recipe. They are cute, yummy and you can't eat only one!

Apple Hand Pies w/an Oatmeal Crust
(printable recipe at end of page)
(makes 5-6 pies)

Crust
1/2 cup Flahavan's Irish Oatmeal
1 cup Flour
1/3 cup Light Brown Sugar, packed
1 tablespoon Ground Walnuts
1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
Pinch Salt
1 Egg
1/2 teaspoon Butter, melted

Filling
1 Apple
1/2 teaspoon Lemon Juice
1/4 teaspoon Rodelle Vanilla
1 1/2 tablespoons White Sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg

In a large bowl mix together the oatmeal, flour, light brown sugar,

ground walnuts, baking soda and salt.

In a small bowl, beat the egg with an immersion blender if you have one. If not, use a mixer. Add the beaten egg to the crust mix and mix together. Form the crust into a circle, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for an hour. 

Wash, peel and chop the apples. The pieces need to be small to fit properly in the little pie. Place in a frying pan.

Season apple pieces with the lemon juice, vanilla, both sugars, cinnamon and nutmeg. Cook until soft, but with a little firmness, approximately 5-10 minutes. Let cool. 

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll out with a rolling pin to 1/8" inch. Cut the circles, remembering you will need 2 pieces for each pie. The cutter I used is 3 1/2" round, but of course, any size will work.

Place 1/2 teaspoon to 3/4 teaspoon of the filling in each bottom piece of the pie.

Place a top piece on each pie, and using a fork, move around the pie, marking it wth the tines of the fork. Brush the top with some of the melted butter. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake for 5-7 minutes. 

Cool on a cooling rack and serve!
