Instruction
Ingredients
For the Hand Pies
1 can refrigerated flaky-layer biscuits
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, plus extra for the work surface
1 can cherry pie filling
1 can blueberry pie filling
1 can strawberry pie filling
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon milk, if needed for the dough
For the Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Method
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Lightly flour your work surface and gently flatten each biscuit into a round, thin disc.
- Place a small spoonful of cherry, blueberry, or strawberry pie filling in the center of half of the flattened biscuits. Avoid adding too much filling because it can leak during baking.
- Place another biscuit over each filled biscuit. Press the edges together firmly.
- Use a fork to crimp around the edges, completely sealing each hand pie. Make a small slit or two on top to allow steam to escape.
- Arrange the hand pies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
- Bake for about 15–20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let the hand pies cool for several minutes.
- To make the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Add a little more milk if the glaze is too thick.
- Drizzle the vanilla glaze over the cooled hand pies and allow it to set for a few minutes before serving.

Tips
Do not overfill the pastries, as the fruit filling can escape while baking.
Seal the edges firmly with a fork before placing the hand pies in the oven.
If the dough becomes sticky, lightly dust the work surface with flour.
Allow the hand pies to cool slightly before adding the glaze.
For a prettier finish, drizzle the glaze in thin lines across the tops.
You can use apple, peach, raspberry, or mixed-berry filling instead of the three fruit flavors.
Store leftovers in an airtight container and enjoy them within a few days.
