Tequila Spiked Fried Peach Hand Pies is a delicious dessert recipe that combines juicy peaches with the bold flavor of tequila, all wrapped up in a crispy, flaky pie crust. The peaches are simmered with sugar, tequila, and cinnamon until tender, then thickened with a mixture of butter, flour, cornstarch, and salt. The filling is spooned onto circles of pie crust, then folded in half and sealed, creating individual hand pies. The pies are brushed with beaten egg and sprinkled with coarse sugar before baking, resulting in a golden brown exterior. This recipe is perfect for a summer day and makes for a unique and delicious dessert option.
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe peaches, pitted and diced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons tequila
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- Pinch of salt
- 2 refrigerated pie crusts
- 1 egg, beaten
- Coarse sugar, for garnish
Instructions:
In a saucepan, combine peaches, sugar, tequila, and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves and peaches are tender, about 10 minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk together butter, flour, cornstarch, and salt. Add to peach mixture and cook until thickened, about 2 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll out pie crusts on a floured surface. Cut into 4-inch circles.
Place a spoonful of peach filling in the center of each pie crust circle. Fold the circle in half and crimp the edges to seal. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
Bake until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
