Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups fresh peaches, diced small
  • 2 tablespoons bourbo
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamo
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 sheets pie crust (15 oz total)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar

Method
 

  1. Prepare the peach filling by combining diced peaches, bourbon, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and lemon juice in a bowl. Let sit for 10-15 minutes.
  2. Roll out the pie crust on a floured surface and cut out circles using a biscuit cutter.
  3. Place about two tablespoons of the peach mixture onto the center of each dough circle. Moisten edges with water, fold over, and crimp to seal.
  4. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the hand pies on a parchment-lined baking sheet, cut slits in the tops, and brush with egg wash. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  5. Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown and filling is bubbling. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Ensure dough stays cold for a flaky crust. Use fresh peaches for best results, but frozen can be substituted. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
