Description

These Cranberry Hand Pies feature a flaky crust filled with tangy-sweet cranberry sauce—a perfect treat for any occasion. Quick to make and delightful to taste!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pie dough sheets (10x12 inches each) or 1 double pie crust
  • ¾ cup leftover cranberry sauce
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Roll out the dough and cut into circles using a cookie cutter.
  • Coat the edges of the bottom circles with beaten egg to help seal.
  • Spoon cranberry sauce onto the center of each bottom circle.
  • Place the top circles over each filled base and press to seal.
  • Crimp the edges with a fork and make small slits on top for venting.
  • Chill for 15-20 minutes on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and flaky.

Notes

Dough should be cold for a flaky texture.
Don’t overfill to prevent bursting.
Experiment with flavor additions like orange zest.
