Less than 10 ingredients and you’ll have yourself some pie! Well, a hand pie at least. Which I think is way better than it’s original and larger counterpart. I mean… you get to eat it with your hand – on the go even!
I feel like my point has been made here.
This hand pie is made with whatever jam you have on hand. My fave is homemade chia seed jam but as I’m sure you can tell from the pictures – your girl was straight out of. So instead, I used store-bought jam and guess what? I’m still here to tell the tale.
That’s what I love about recipes like this, you don’t have to over think them! Gluten-free? Great, make it with an all-purpose gluten-free flour! Don’t like strawberries? I don’t really blame you, a blueberry lemon compote with some cream cheese would be BOMB. Don’t use Nuzest? THAT IS UNFORGIVABLE. Just kidding! Add another tbsp or so of flour to replace it.
Make this recipe as you see fit but don’t forget to tell me about it when you do!
Dying to tell everyone you made this recipe and loved it?? Don’t forget to share a picture and tag @thekellykathleen so that I can profess my love to you and re-share it for all to see!
