Ingredients: – 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour – 1/4 teaspoon salt – 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into cube – 1/4 cup cold water – 1/4 cup raspberry jam
Instructions: 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
1. Gradually add the cold water, stirring until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. 2. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix together the raspberry jam, softened cream cheese, and powdered sugar until smooth. Set aside.
Place a small dollop of the raspberry cream cheese filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-circle shape. Press the edges together to seal, then crimp with a fork.
Transfer the hand pies to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
1. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the hand pies are golden brown. 2. Allow the hand pies to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious jammy raspberry cream pretzel hand pies!
