Here’s a delicious Peach Cobbler Donut Hand Pies recipe—sweet, fruity, and perfect for snacks or dessert 🍑🥟
Peach Cobbler Donut Hand Pies
Ingredients
For the dough (shortcut using biscuits or donut dough)
- 1 can of refrigerated biscuit dough (or use donut dough if preferred)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
For the filling
- 2 cups fresh or canned peaches, diced
- 1/4 cup sugar (adjust to sweetness of peaches)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tsp cornstarch (for thickening if using fresh peaches)
For the topping
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the filling
- In a small saucepan, combine peaches, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch.
- Cook over medium heat 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened. Let cool.
- Prepare the dough
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Roll out each biscuit or piece of dough into a small circle (about 4 inches).
- Assemble hand pies
- Spoon 1–2 tablespoons of peach filling in the center of each circle.
- Fold dough over to make a half-moon shape.
- Press edges with a fork to seal.
- Brush with beaten egg.
- Bake
- Place hand pies on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake 12–15 minutes until golden brown.
- Finish
- Brush warm pies with melted butter.
- Mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over the top.
Tips
- For a crispy, fried version, you can deep-fry the hand pies instead of baking.
- Add a drizzle of glaze (powdered sugar + milk) for extra sweetness.
- Mini versions are great for party snacks or lunchbox treats.
I can also give a version using homemade flaky pie dough if you want it more like a classic peach cobbler in a hand pie form. Do you want that?
