Ingredients
- 2/3 cup Ocean Spray® Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
- 3 tablespoons Ocean Spray® Craisins® Dried Cranberries
- 1 teaspoon McCormick® Ground Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon McCormick® All Natural Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
- 1 package (14.1 ounces) refrigerated pie crusts, (2 crusts)
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- Granulated sugar, for sprinkling
INSTRUCTIONS
- 1 Preheat oven to 400°F. Mix Cranberry Sauce, Craisins®, cinnamon, vanilla and salt in small saucepan. Bring to simmer on medium heat. Mix lemon juice and cornstarch in small bowl until well blended; stir into cranberry mixture in saucepan. Cook and stir 1 minute until thickened. Stir in lemon zest. Remove from heat. Let cool 10 minutes.
- 2 Unroll crusts on lightly floured surface. Cut out 8 rounds from each crust using 3 1/2-inch round cookie cutter. Spoon about 1 tablespoon cranberry filling onto center of 8 rounds. Brush edges of each filled crust lightly with egg. Top each with a second dough round, pressing edges with the back of a fork to seal. Use a sharp knife to cut small slits or an ‘x’ on top crust to allow steam to escape. Place hand pies 2-inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Brush tops with remaining egg. Sprinkle lightly with sugar, if desired.
- 3 Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until crust is light golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
