I love summer. I love pie. I love fresh peaches.
The other night we received almost an inch of rain! Wow! We so needed it here. The dry blotchy spots of grass were replaced with green in just a few hours. The rain gave all the plants the refreshment that it need. It makes the farmer happy 🙂 We went on an evening walk and discovered several toads happily hopping along. And this morning, as soon as I opened the front door a tree frog was there to greet me. The reptiles and animals are happy, too!
Now, back to the pies… these are super simple ingredients… and can be made into cute little pies. They just require a bit more cutting with the crust. Once they are baked. then drizzle glaze. Let cool. Wrap up in gingham (or your favorite fabric). Find a cute basket, and hand out to friends. Brighten someone’s day!
Mini Peach Pies
Ingredients
- 2 boxes Pillsbury refrigerated pie crusts
- 1/2 21 (oz) can peach pie filling
- 1/2 t ground cinnamon
- 1 egg white, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 3-4 T milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Unroll the 2 pie crusts and place on a level workspace for 5-10 minutes before cutting into pieces. You want the pie dough to be at room temp before using.
- Pour the peach pie filling into a bowl and cut up the peach slices into small pieces so they will fit.
- Add the cinnamon to the pie filling and stir well to incorporate. Set aside while cutting the dough.
- Once at room temperature, use a 4-inch cookie cutter or biscuit cutter and cut out 6 circles from each roll of dough.
- Place the 12 mini pie crusts on the parchment lined cookie sheet.
- Place 1 Tablespoon of the pie filling onto the middle of each mini pie crust.
- Fold each mini pie crust in half and pinch the edges closed. Use the tines of a fork to seal.
- Use a knife to poke two small holes into the middle of each pie.
- Brush the beaten egg white on top of each hand pie and bake for 15 minutes.
- For the glaze, add the powdered sugar and milk to a small mixing bowl Whisk until well combined and set aside.
- Removed peach pies from the oven and place the cookie sheet on a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes.
- After cooling, dip the pies into the glaze, covering each one entirely. Place back on cookie sheet to cool completely.
