Preheat oven to 425°F. Remove pie crusts from package and allow to come to room temperature.
Unroll pie crusts and cut 6 circles from each crust using a 4-inch biscuit cutter. You may have to re-roll the scraps to get the 6th circle.
Using a 1 tbsp cookie scoop, drop half a scoop of blueberry pie filling and half a scoop of strawberry pie filling into center of each pie crust circle. Fold in half and pinch edges completely. Fold pinched edges over and press with the tines of a fork to seal. Poke hand pie with fork once, to prevent bursting.
Beat egg white in a small bowl until frothy. Brush over the tops of each hand pie. Bake on a parchment paper lined baking sheet (1 inch apart) for about 15 minutes, until browned.
For glazed hand pies, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Remove cooked pies from baking sheet and drop (while warm) into glaze, coating it completely. I use two forks to flip it in the glaze and remove carefully. Return to parchment paper and allow to set (about 5 minutes).
For the sugar coated hand pies, brush the warm hand pies with melted butter and dunk into a bowl with the granulated sugar. Place on parchment paper to cool. ENJOY!
Notes
For sugar coated hand pies: Brush the baked pies with melted butter while they’re still warm. Then dunk the hand pies immediately into a bowl of granulated sugar.
For glazed hand pies: Whisk together powdered sugar and milk to form a simple icing. Use a fork to drop the warm hand pies into the glaze.
After adding the glaze or the sugar coating, make sure to let your hand pies cool completely before eating. The filling will be very hot when the pies first come out of the oven. You don’t want to burn the roof of your mouth!
I use these round cutters for cutting the pie crust into even circles.
