Irresistible S’mores Hand Pies Recipe

Introduction

These Irresistible S’mores Hand Pies capture all the nostalgic flavors of classic s’mores in a convenient, bite-sized treat. Perfect for sharing, they combine gooey marshmallow, melted chocolate, and crunchy graham crackers inside a flaky pie crust. Ready in minutes using your air fryer, they’re sure to satisfy any sweet tooth.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
• 2 bars chocolate, chopped into small pieces
• 3/4 cup crushed graham crackers (reserve half for topping)
• Water, for sealing edges
• 14.1 oz refrigerated pie dough
• 2 tbsp salted butter, melted
• Optional for serving: chocolate syrup and marshmallow cream for dipping

Instructions

1. Step 1: Remove the refrigerated pie dough from the packaging and let it come to room temperature according to package instructions. Use a 3-inch cookie cutter to cut out as many circles as possible, placing them close together.
2. Step 2: In a medium bowl, mix the chopped chocolate, mini marshmallows, and half of the crushed graham crackers until well combined.
3. Step 3: Place about one tablespoon of the filling in the center of half the dough circles. Moisten the edges with water, then top with the remaining dough circles. Press gently to seal, and use a fork to crimp the edges securely and decoratively.
4. Step 4: Brush the tops with melted butter, then sprinkle evenly with the reserved crushed graham crackers.
5. Step 5: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F for 5 minutes. Lightly spray the basket with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange 2-4 pies in the basket without touching and air fry for about 10 minutes until golden brown and melted inside. Transfer to a wire rack to cool and repeat with remaining pies.
6. Step 6: Serve the mini s’mores pies slightly warm with chocolate syrup and marshmallow cream for dipping if desired.

Tips & Variations

• For an extra gooey center, add more chocolate pieces to the filling.
• If you don’t have an air fryer, bake the pies at 375°F for 12–15 minutes or until golden.
• Try adding a pinch of cinnamon or a few crushed nuts to the filling for a twist.

Storage

Store any leftover pies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, use the air fryer at 325°F for 3–4 minutes or warm briefly in a microwave, though air frying keeps the crust crispier.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use homemade pie dough instead of refrigerated?

Yes, homemade pie dough works beautifully and adds extra flavor if you prefer. Just roll it out and cut into circles as directed.

What if I don’t have mini marshmallows?

You can chop regular-sized marshmallows into smaller pieces to mimic the mini ones, which will melt nicely inside the pies.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

For the Mini Pies:

• 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
• 2 bars chocolate, chopped into small pieces (approximately 3.4 oz each)
• 3/4 cup crushed graham crackers (reserve half for topping)
• Water, for sealing edges
• 14.1 oz refrigerated pie dough
• 2 tbsp salted butter, melted

For Serving (Optional):

• Chocolate syrup, for dipping
• Marshmallow cream, for dipping

Instructions

1. Prepare the Pie Dough: Remove the refrigerated pie crusts from their packaging and allow them to come to room temperature as per package instructions. Using a 3-inch cookie cutter, cut as many circles as possible from the dough. Place them close together on your work surface to maximize the number of pies.
2. Make the S’mores Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped chocolate bars, mini marshmallows, and half of the crushed graham crackers. Stir until evenly mixed. For extra gooeyness, you may add a little more chocolate.
3. Fill and Seal the Mini Pies: Spoon about one tablespoon of the filling mixture onto the center of half of the pie dough circles. Moisten the edge of each filled circle with water using a finger. Top with the remaining dough circles and gently press to seal. Crimp the edges decoratively using a fork to ensure sealing.
4. Butter and Top the Pies: Brush the tops of the sealed pies with melted salted butter. Sprinkle the reserved crushed graham crackers evenly on top for added texture and flavor.
5. Air Fry the Mini S’mores Pies: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray. Place 2 to 4 pies in the basket without overlapping. Air fry for about 10 minutes or until the crust turns golden brown and the filling is melted. Transfer the pies to a wire rack to cool and repeat with remaining pies. For extra crunch, you can air fry for an additional minute, but watch carefully to avoid burning.
6. Serve with Dipping Sauces: Arrange the cooled mini s’mores hand pies on a serving platter. Serve alongside chocolate syrup and marshmallow cream for dipping. Enjoy while warm for the best experience.

Notes

• Allowing the pie dough to reach room temperature makes it easier to cut and seal.
• Be careful not to overfill the pies to prevent leaking during cooking.
• If you don’t have an air fryer, these pies can be baked in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Use a small cookie cutter to maximize the number of pies and create bite-sized treats.
• For added flavor, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of the melted butter before adding graham cracker crumbs.
