Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/4 cup ice-cold water
- 1 cup filling of your choice (cooked meats, veggies, cheese)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine flour and cold butter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice-cold water until the dough holds together. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Step 2: Prepare your filling by finely chopping cooked meats or vegetables and mixing with spices.
- Step 3: Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick and cut into circles.
- Step 4: Place a tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle, fold over the dough, and seal edges using fingers or a fork.
- Step 5: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange hand pies on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush with egg wash, and bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
Notes
- Refrigeration of the dough for 30 minutes helps to relax the gluten and makes the dough easier to work with.
- You can customize the filling to your preference using meats, vegetables, or cheeses.
