Thanksgiving Leftovers Hand Pies are the perfect way to serve up all those fabulous leftovers from Thanksgiving day. These hand pies are customizable to whatever leftovers you want to add. For these hand pies, I put in turkey, mashed potatoes and stuffing. They would be awesome with sweet potatoes, Corn Casserole with Bacon and cranberry sauce. Whatever you’ve got, whatever is your favorite you can add to make these delicious, portable meal.

In case you were wondering what to do with your Thanksgiving Leftovers, I’ve got one of my favorite, easy recipes!
Thanksgiving Leftovers Hand Pies Recipe
Start with a tube of refrigerated crescent roll dough. You’ll want to lightly flour a sheet of parchment paper to make this easier. Open your can of crescent rolls and unroll them on your floured parchment paper. Use your fingers or a rolling pin to smooth and remove the seams, so you have one large piece of crescent dough.
Now cut your dough into 6 even sized pieces, so you’ll have 3 tops and 3 bottoms for your hand pies.
Now it’s time to load one size with your leftovers. I used turkey, mashed potatoes and stuffing for my hand pies. But let your imagination run wind.
Make sure to leave some space around the edges.
Now add the top dough and with a fork crimp the edges.
Bake in a 375-degree oven for 10-12 minutes, until the tops are golden brown.
Serve the hand pies hot!
One can of crescent rolls will make 3 hand pies.
I hope this gave you a fresh idea on what to do with those leftovers!
Happy Thanksgiving! they sure look yummy, i bet the kids would like them!
