Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a small bowl, combine the apple pie filling, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and granulated sugar. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  3. Unroll the refrigerated pie crusts onto a lightly floured surface. Using a round cookie cutter or a small bowl, cut out circles from the pie crusts.

  4. Place a spoonful of the apple pie filling mixture in the center of half of the pie crust circles, leaving a small border around the edge.

  5. Brush the edges of the filled pie crust circles with the beaten egg to help seal the pies closed.

  6. Place the remaining pie crust circles on top of the filled ones. Gently press the edges together to seal the pies.

  7. Using a fork, crimp the edges of the hand pies to further seal them.

  8. Brush the tops of the hand pies with the remaining beaten egg and sprinkle them with coarse sugar.

  9. Place the hand pies on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

  10. Remove the hand pies from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
