Hand Pie

Pre-Thanksgiving, all I could think about was the cooking and baking ahead.  My mom arrive on Monday and we headed to our annual Kiawah Island Thanksgiving Wednesday afternoon.  Prior to that, my mom cooked up a storm in my kitchen (squash casserole, sweet potato casserole, and a pumpkin roll).  I decided to keep it simple this week, and use some leftover pie dough to make hand pies.  The best part was the simplicity--stove top filling, quick pie dough cut-out, and a fast 20-minute bake that produced the crispiest delight.  It was such a perfect pre-Thanksgiving weekend dessert.  

bon appétit,
