Air Fryer Apple Hand Pies
Hand Pies are super quick and easy in the air fryer!
Equipment
- air fryer
Ingredients
- 1 package refrigerated pie crust 2 pie crusts
- 1 can apple pie filling or whatever fruit filling you like
- non-stick cooking spray I prefer butter flavor
- cinnamon sugar sprinkle if you want
Instructions
- Let the refrigerated pie dough thaw as directed on the packaging. Unroll and use a 4" to 4 1/2" circle and cut out 8 circles (4 in each pie dough). I used a mug for my template, but if you have a large biscuit cutters or a small plate would work.
- Scoop about 1 heaping tablespoon of the apple mixture on one side of each of the circles of dough. Make sure you have about 1/4" of space around the outer edge with no filling on it.
- Damping your finger with water and run it around the outside edge of the pie dough.
- Fold over the pie dough and use a fork to help seal the hand pie closed. Use a knife to cut a few slits in the top.
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°. Once preheated, spray the air fryer tray with non-stick spray. Place 4 hand pies into the air fryer and then spray the tops with non-stick spray. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar if you'd like.
- Bake for 12 minutes. Remove and let cool on a wire rack at least 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
4 hand pies fit in an 8-quart air fryer. If you have a smaller or larger air fryer you will need to adjust the number of pies you cook at a time. Make sure there's space around your hand pies for the air to circulate.
You can store the hand pies in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
You can prep your pies the day before and keep in them in the refrigerator until you're ready to bake in the air fryer.
