How to Make Just Peachy Individual Hand Pies
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 1/3 cup granulated sugar.
- Add the cornstarch mixture to the melted butter in the skillet.
- Stir in 4 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and boils, about 25 minutes.
- Continue to boil for 1 minute.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice.
- Allow the filling to cool completely before using.
- While the filling cools, prepare the pie crust. Cut the crust into 8 quarters.
- Spoon 2 tablespoons of the cooled peach filling into the center of each pie crust quarter, leaving 3/4-inch of dough uncovered on each side.
- Fold the dough over the filling, forming a half-moon shape.
- Crimp the edges firmly to seal.
- Transfer the hand pies to two ungreased baking sheets.
- Whisk 1 large egg with 1 teaspoon of water; brush the tops of the pies with the egg wash.
- Sprinkle the tops with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar.
- Cut a 1-inch slit in the top of each pie to allow steam to escape.
- Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown, rotating baking sheets halfway through.
- Remove the hand pies from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before serving.
