Omg thank u for this recipe and ur pie crust recipe too, it may be the best pie crust and hand pie filling ive ever made! You even have my kids asking me to make these, and, a friend actually grabbed at least half of them and hid them so he cud eat them all himself!

Did you make sure to roll the dough thin enough? Did your apple filling sit for a while and release a lot of juice in the bowl that didn’t end up in the pies?

This is a great and easy receipe!  I am so excited to take them to my annual pie party.  They are already a hit in my house.  Thank you!!

I tried your butter/shortening pastry as opposed to my regular lard recipe..it was super flaky.  The hand pies were yummy, even though my first try at these weren’t as pretty as yours, I’ll definitely make these again.  Thanks for this recipe!

My first time making hand pies and I’m so glad I found this easy recipe. I ended up with 15 little pies and they are delicious. I completely forgot the egg wash and granulated sugar for the tops (will remember to do next time) and they still turned out amazing. They are Hubby approved!

Deb, I used  the Pillsbury crust also. I liked it better when it was rolled out thinner. It makes the pies more tender. I also easily rerolled the leftover pieces to make more circles. ??

These pies were very tasty. ??  I think the butter really hits the spot. I need to practice making them “prettier,” but that’s okay. ?

Did you roll it out to 1/8-inch thick and re-roll any extra pie dough you had left over?
