Air Fryer Strawberry Hand Pies

Ingredients

• 1 sheet refrigerated pie crust
• 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1 piece egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine diced strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Mix gently and set aside.
2. Unroll the pie crust and cut out 4 equal rectangles or circles (about 10x15 cm or 12 cm diameter).
3. Place a spoonful of the strawberry filling onto one half of each pastry shape, leaving a border.
4. Fold the other half of the pastry over the filling and crimp the edges with a fork to seal.
5. Cut a few small slits on top of each hand pie for venting. Brush with beaten egg.
6. Air fry at 170°C for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.
