Jack-O’-Lantern Hand Pies
Recipe Remix for Turkey and Harvest Vegetable Hand Pies. Don't have our hand pies. Pick up a frozen pie crust and pie filling to make dessert pies using these instructions instead.
Ingredients
- Dream Dinners Turkey and Harvest Vegetable Hand Pies
- 3-inch diameter circular cookie cutter
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Thaw in the refrigerator. REMOVE PIE SHELL AND KEEP IN FREEZER. DO NOT THAW.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray. While the oven is preheating, remove the pie shells from the freezer and lay them out to thaw for 8-10 minutes.
- In a medium sauté pan, heat 1 Tbsp. of olive oil over med-high heat. Add ground turkey and break into bite-size crumbles with a spatula. Cook for 5-7 minutes, then drain any excess liquid.
- Add the root vegetable mix to ground turkey and cook until heated through (approximately 5-7 minutes), breaking up large vegetables into bite-size pieces if necessary.
- Reduce heat to low, add gravy, and mix well. Allow the sauce to simmer for 5 minutes until it has thickened. Remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, place the thawed pie shell rounds on a floured surface. Using a cookie cutter, cut out smaller circles of dough from each pie shell. Cut out as many smaller circles as you can.
- With half the smaller pie rounds and a small paring knife, cut out jack-o’-lantern faces. Be fun and creative with these looks!
- Brush the outer edges of mini pie rounds with egg mixture. Evenly distribute turkey mixture in the center of ½ of the total pie rounds. Top the turkey filled pie rounds with jack-o’-lantern pie round and seal edges by crimping with a fork. Complete with remaining pies.
- Brush the top of each mini pie with the egg mixture for a nice shine.
- Lay jack-o’-lanterns on the foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes on the top rack of the oven. Allow pies to cool 5 minutes before serving.
This luscious dessert combines tart green apples sautéed in a rich caramel sauce, topped with flakey puff pastry, and baked to perfection. *Due to the different product brands you may find at your local grocery store and their varied nutritionals, we are unable to provide nutritional information for this recipe.Caramel Apple Pizza
