Byzitouni

🛒 What You’ll Need

  • 2 Pre-made pie crusts (or your favorite homemade dough) 🥧
  • 2 cups Fresh or canned peaches, finely diced 🍑
  • ¼ cup Brown sugar 🤎
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon & ¼ tsp Nutmeg 🍂
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch (to keep it from getting soggy!) ✨
  • 1 Egg (for that golden egg wash) 🥚
  • Oil for frying (or bake them for a lighter version!) 🫒🔥

For the “Donut” Glaze:

  • 1 cup Powdered sugar ☁️
  • 2 tbsp Milk or heavy cream 🥛
  • ½ tsp Vanilla extract 🍦

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. The Peach Filling: In a small saucepan, combine your diced peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch. Simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes until the peaches are tender and the sauce is thick. Let it cool completely! 🍑🔥🌪️
  2. Prep the Crust: Roll out your pie dough and cut out 4-5 inch circles using a large cookie cutter or a small bowl. 🥧📐
  3. Stuff & Fold: Place a spoonful of the cooled peach mixture in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape. 🥟🥄
  4. Seal It: Use a fork to crimp the edges tightly so no peach goodness escapes! 🍴🔒
  5. Get Golden: * To Fry: Heat oil to 350°F and fry for 2–3 minutes per side until deep golden brown. 🥨🔥
    • To Bake: Brush with egg wash and bake at 400°F for 15–20 minutes. ⏲️📈
  6. The Glaze Dip: While the pies are still warm, whisk together your powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla. Dip the top of each hand pie into the glaze (or pour it over) as seen in the photo! 🍯🌊👑✨
  7. Serve: Let the glaze set for a minute, then enjoy that sticky, fruity, flaky goodness! 🍽️😋🧤

🔥 Pro Tips:

  • The “Cool” Secret: Never put hot filling on raw dough! It will melt the butter in the crust and make it impossible to seal. Always let your peaches cool to room temperature first. 🍑🛡️💎
  • The Crunch Factor: If baking, sprinkle a little coarse sugar over the egg wash before they hit the oven for an extra sweet crunch! ✨💎🎯
