Like most things I bake, these Blueberry Hand Pies are SO easy!!! If you need a quick, easy to make, homemade dessert that everyone will love, make these hand pies! You can add a little fancy vanilla ice cream if you feel they need to be dressed up, but really, they can stand on their own two feet….just look at how pretty they are. They kind of remind me of the Hostess fruit pies we had as kids way back when….but so much better!!

Begin by mixing in a large bowl the blueberries, sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice. Stir to combine and set aside. On a floured surface, roll out your pie crust. Using a cereal bowl (because I don’t have a 6″ cookie cutter), cut the pie crust into circles. You should end up with 6-8 circles.

Put the pie crust circles on a parchment lined cookie sheet and fill each half of the circles with a few tablespoons of the blueberry mixture. Fold the crust over to form a half circle. Using a fork, crimp the ends.

Brush the top of each hand pie with an egg wash and sprinkle with raw sugar. Vent each hand pie with a knife and bake at 375º for 30 minutes, or until perfectly browned. There you have it!! That’s it. Told you it was easy!

Ingredients:

1 pie crust (I use refrigerated ready to use pie crust)
1½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1 tablespoon lemon juice
¼ cup raw sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Egg wash (1 egg whisked with a teaspoon of cold water)
Raw sugar to dust the tops of the pies

Makes 6-8 hand pies
