Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 refrigerated deep-dish pie crusts
  • 1/2 cup cranberry sauce
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp water
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tbsp orange juice

Instructions

  • Unroll the pastry and cut each pie crust into eight rounds with a 3.5-inch round cutter (or any shape/size you like). You should end up with 16 rounds.
  • Place one tablespoon of cranberry sauce in the middle of 8 pastry rounds. Top with the remaining pastry rounds, then seal around the edges with a fork.
  • Poke holes, or cut a small slit in the top of each hand pie.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water together. Brush over the hand pies.
  • Place the hand pies in a single layer of an air fryer basket.  Set the air fryer to 350°F and cook for 8-9 minutes until golden brown.  Work in batches if needed.
  • Let the hand pies cool, then mix the powdered sugar and orange juice in a small bowl until smooth and runny.  You can make it as thick or thin as you like. Drizzle over the hand pies. 

Notes

If your air fryer has multiple settings, you will use the "air fry" setting for this recipe rather than the "bake" setting.
