Ingredients

For the Blackberry Filling

  • 3 cups blackberries, divided
  • cup sugar
  • 3 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 7 Tablespoons water, divided
  • 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 ready made pie crust, I used Pillsbury
  • 1 large egg, whisked
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

For the Blackberry Filling

  • Heat a saucepan over low/medium heat.
  • Stir 2 cups of blackberries, sugar, lemon juice, 3 tablespoons water into pan and bring to a boil.
  • Let boil for 3-4 minutes, then add remaining 1 cup of blackberries. Stir.
  • Mix 4 tablespoons water and cornstarch together. Add cornstarch mixture to the blackberries and stir.
  • Continue cooking until sauce thickens.
  • Remove from heat, let cool for 15 minutes. 

Making The Hand Pies

  • Unroll pie crust on a lightly flour surface and, with a biscuit cutter, cut pie dough into 3 inch circles. 
  • Add a little water to the edges of the dough before filling to help seal.
  • Add a heaping tablespoon (or two) of blackberry sauce to the center of each pie dough. Fold dough in half and using a fork, crimp the edges to help secure the filling. Place hand pies on prepared baking sheet.
  • In a small bowl, whisk egg and tablespoon of water together and brush the top of each hand pie. 
  • Bake at 400° for approximately 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and enjoy warm. 
  • Blackberry filling can also be served warm over pancakes, French toast, etc., or cool and use for toppings on cheesecakes, crepes, etc.
