Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 16 hand pies

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pckg pre-made pie crust (2 crusts)
  • 8 oz. cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 green onions, stems only
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp parsley flakes
  • 1/4 tsp dill
  • 1/8 tsp seasoning salt
  • 1 egg

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place parchment on a cookie sheet and set aside.

  2. Mix the cream cheese, sour cream and spices until well combined. Stir in bacon, cheese and green onions. 

  3. Unroll the pie crusts and cut out 16 circles using a 4" biscuit cutter. Roll together any leftover pie crust pieces to get enough pastry to reach 15 or 16 circles.

  4. Top each circle of crust with a tablespoonful of the cream cheese mixture. Dip your finger in a bit of water and rub that along the edge of the circle, to help seal the hand pies. Fold the crust over and seal the pies however you prefer. I did a pinch and fold, but crimping the edges with a fork would work just as well. 

  5. Place onto prepared cookie sheet and cut a small slice into each pie so steam can escape. Beat egg with 1 tbsp of water and brush onto each hand pie.

  6. Bake for 20-22 minutes. Enjoy
