I have so many fun memories of cooking and baking around this time of year and can’t wait to dive in  These little individual hand pies are a fun and simple dessert for your guests to enjoy! I started by using a Karo recipe for Apple Pie Bites, but changed it up a little with peanut butter and a double crust.

Cut Your Pie Crust Rounds!

Peanut Butter Apple Hand Pies

Unroll your pie crust and cut about 3 inch rounds. I used a mason jar lid. A round cookie cutter works great too.

Hand Pies

I was able to get 12 rounds out of each pie crust.

Hand Pies

Spoon about 1 tablespoon of filling into center of half the pie crust rounds.

 Hand Pies

Close with remaining pie crust rounds and press edges firmly. Brush lightly with melted butter. Bake until golden.

Hand Pies

Remove from oven and let cool. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
