Then use a fork or some other implement to seal the pies further. That will help it hold together a little better when you fold over the crust and press the edges together. Too much filling means that the pies won’t seal well, which can lead to leaks and perhaps even pies that become unsealed during baking.įor sealing, I like to dab just a bit of water around the edges of the crust. When filling these pies, be sure not to over-fill them, or you can end up with a mess. You can opt to use vanilla or another extract if you like, or omit it for an even simpler filling. I also like to add almond extract with the peaches for a little extra flavor. It starts with peaches, brown sugar, and cinnamon.

The filling is a simple one that you can toss together quickly. If you prefer to use a traditional pie crust, just substitute your favorite double crust recipe. The cream cheese gives it a lovely flavor and texture, and it’s just so, so easy to make. The pastry in this recipe is my favorite for hand pies. That leaves more time for you to enjoy yourself and your family and friends!

Just set them out and let everyone help themselves. These Peach Hand Pies are great for a grab-and-eat treat.
