  • 3/4 cup Nutella

ingredients

Crust Ingredients:

  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 12 tablepoons cold and cut into cubes Butter
  • 11 tablepoons ice cold Water

Method

  • Step 1

    To make the dough, scoop two leveled cups of flour into a large bowl. Add the cold and thinly sliced (about 1/4 inch) butter and use a pastry cutter or a fork to combine it. Next, add 11 tbsp of ice cold water and stir until a dough has formed.

  • Step 2

    Slightly flatten your dough ball into a disc, and then cover it in plastic wrap. Place it in the fridge to chill for 1 hour.

  • Step 3

    Meanwhile, add the strawberries, sugar, and flour to a medium sauce pan. Stir/mash the mixture as it cooks on high for 5 minutes. Remove this from the heat, and allow it to come to room temperature.

  • Step 4

    Once your dough has chilled, roll it out onto a floured surface. You want it to be about 1/4 in thick. Use a 3 in round cutter to cut out 24 circles of dough. Place half of your dough circles on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

  • Step 5

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Scoop 1 tbsp of the Nutella, followed by 1 tbsp of the strawberry filling onto the centers of all 12 circles that are on your baking sheet. Make sure to leave about 1 in of space around the edges, and brush a little water on that open space to help seal the dough together. Place the remaining circles on top of each one, and use a fork to crimp them down/seal them around the filling. Poke a few small holes in the tops to allow for steam.

  • Step 6

    Bake the hand pies for 20-25 minutes. Remove from the oven, and place on a wire rack to cool. Enjoy!
