Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tbsp granulated sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt. Cut in 3/4 cup cold unsalted butter using a pastry cutter until pea-sized crumbs form.
  2. Step 2: Gradually add 6-8 tbsp ice water, stirring until the dough just comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine 4 oz softened cream cheese, 2 tbsp powdered sugar, and 1 tsp lemon juice until smooth.
  4. Step 4: On a floured surface, roll out chilled dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into 5-inch circles. Place 1 tbsp diced fresh peaches and 1 tbsp cream cheese mixture in the center of each circle.
  5. Step 5: Fold dough over filling to create a half-moon shape and press edges with a fork to seal. Brush each hand pie with 1 beaten egg for a golden finish.
  6. Step 6: Place pies on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 375°F for 20-22 minutes until golden brown and flaky. Cool slightly before serving.
