Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Heat butter and olive oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced apple, onion, herbs, salt, pepper & red pepper flakes. Sauté until onion is translucent and apple has softened. Remove from heat.
-
Space 4, 4-inch pie crust rounds on the baking sheet, 2-inches apart. Place 1 sausage patty on each round, top with 1 tablespoon apple/onion mixture. If desired, sprinkle cheese on top of apple/onion mixture.
-
In small bowl, whisk together egg and water. Brush egg wash around outer rim of each bottom pie crust. Cut a few slits in middle of remaining 4 pie crusts and drape over top of prepared hand pies. Gently pull bottom crust edge of each pie up and over top crust creating a sealed edge all the way around. (Be sure to tuck top crust into bottom crust.)
-
Brush entire hand pie with egg wash and slightly crimp edges with fork. If desired, sprinkle top with coarse salt and/or black pepper.
-
Bake at 350˚F for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
