Delightful handheld dessert bursting with juicy peaches wrapped in a flaky pastry crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  • 6–8 tablespoons ice water
  • 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (for sprinkling)

Instructions

  1. Create the Flaky Pastry Dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Bring the Dough Together: Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide the dough into two discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 60 minutes.
  3. Prepare the Peach Filling: Combine the diced peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Stir gently and let sit for 15 minutes.
  4. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. Roll Out the Dough: Roll one disc of dough to about 1/8 inch thick and cut out 5-inch circles.
  6. Fill the Hand Pies: Place a tablespoon of peach filling in the center of each circle. Fold over to create a half-moon and crimp the edges to seal.
  7. Brush and Sprinkle: Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  8. Bake to Perfection: Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Pair with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
