Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, combine blueberries and sugar. Cook over medium heat until blueberries begin to release their juices, 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    10 oz fresh blueberries, 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • Meanwhile, mix cornstarch and lemon juice together in a small bowl until combined. Stir cornstarch slurry into the blueberry mixture, then bring to a gentle boil, stirring often.
    1 ½ tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
  • Once boiling, remove from heat. Let cool completely.

Make the Hand Pies

  • Cut puff pastry sheet into 6 rectangles. Spoon 3 tablespoons of cooled blueberry mixture onto each of the 3 bottom rectangles.
    17.3 ounce frozen puff pastry
  • Place the top rectangles over the blueberry filling, lining up the edges as best you can. Crimp the edges with a fork to seal shut. Repeat this entire step with 2nd pastry sheet so you have a total of 6 pastry pies.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the egg. Brush tops of pastry pies with egg wash, then sprinkle with coarse sugar. Chill pies in the refrigerator for at least 25 minutes.
    1 large egg, coarse sugar
  • Air Fry at 360⁰ F/180⁰ C for 12-14 minutes, switching trays at the halfway mark. Let cool on rack until ready to serve.

Notes

Tips for Perfect Hand Pies:
Thaw the Puff Pastry Properly: Make sure to thaw the puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions.
This will make them easier to handle and ensure they puff up beautifully in the air fryer.
Don't Overfill: Be careful not to overfill the pies, as the filling can leak out during cooking
Seal Well: Use a fork to crimp the edges securely to prevent the filling from escaping.
Experiment with Fillings: This recipe works well with various fruit fillings, so feel free to get creative!
