Why You’ll Love These Baked Pumpkin Hand Pies
If you have followed our website for any amount of time, you know we love pumpkin recipes. These pumpkin hand pies are so simple to make and will quickly become a family favorite. We made these with store-bought pie crust to save time, but you can easily make your own if you like. We have made them with our homemade pie crust and they were delicious either way. The true winner.. we bake them! So no mess in the kitchen!
Do You Need The Glaze?
We top these with cinnamon and then bake them and they are delicious right out of the oven. We did add a basic powdered sugar glaze, and everyone loved them. Of course, you could just top with whipped cream or Cool Whip and enjoy just like a pumpkin pie!
A Few Tips
You don’t want to overfill them because they will leak out, so even if you think you are not adding much filling, it will be more than you think. We recommend 1-2 tablespoons depending on how large you make each hand pie. Don’t forget to crimp the edges!
