Apple Butter Hand Pies with a Maple Syrup Glaze
Ingredients
- 2 whole Premade Pie Crusts, Unbaked
- ¾ cups Apple Butter
- 1 Egg White
- FOR THE GLAZE:
- ½ cups Powdered Sugar
- 3 Tablespoons Milk
- 1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
Preparation
Preheat oven to 450ºF.
Roll out pie dough on a floured surface. Cut out dough in desired shape. Separate shapes so that half are for the bottoms, and half are for the tops of the pies.
Put 1 tablespoon of apple butter in the center of each pie bottom. Place a second cutout on top and crimp edges together with a fork. Cut small slits in the top of each pie (2-3 is fine).
In a small bowl, whisk egg white until light and frothy. Brush top of each pie with a little of the egg white. Place pies on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper
Bake for 10–12 minutes or until tops are golden brown. Allow pies to cool completely before putting the glaze on.
For the glaze:
Mix together sugar, milk and maple syrup in a small bowl. Add more water a teaspoon at a time if the glaze needs to be loosened up. You want it to be loose enough that it can easily be drizzled on top with a spoon.
