Apple Hand Pies
1️⃣ Roll out the pie crusts to ⅛-inch thick and use a cookie cutter to cut the crust into 4-5-inch rounds. (You should get 26-28 pie crust rounds.) 🍪

2️⃣ Add 1-2 tablespoons of apple pie filling to each round. (If you made your own apple pie filling, let it cool before adding to the crust.) 🍏

3️⃣ Fold each mini pie crust (half-moon shape), rubbing water around the edge to help seal it. Crimp with a fork. 🔄🍴

Glaze
4️⃣ Mix confectioners’ sugar and 3 tablespoons of milk in a bowl until smooth and creamy. If too thick, add another tablespoon of milk. Set aside. 🍶

Frying Apple Hand Pies
5️⃣ Fill a frying pan 2-3 inches with oil. Heat over medium heat until the oil reaches 375°F with a candy thermometer. 🌡️

6️⃣ Place 2-3 apple hand pies into the pan. Fry until golden brown (3-4 minutes). Transfer to a paper towel-lined cooling rack. 🥟🧊

7️⃣ While the hand pies are still warm, coat with the glaze. You can coat the pies by drizzling the glaze over each pie or dipping each pie into the bowl of glaze using a large fork. Serve immediately. 🍯
