Peanut Butter and Jelly Hand Pies are the perfect way to easy back into the chaos of the school year. Make a big batch in advance so lunch packing is a breeze!
Spread crescent dough onto a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Gently slice it into eight rectangles (I used a pizza cutter).
Place a dollop of peanut butter, and a dollop of jam in the center of each rectangle, then fold each rectangle in half making sure all of the peanut butter and jelly stays in the center.
Using a fork, firmly push the edges of the pie together. Make sure to push hard as you don’t want the filling to ooze out.
Whisk the egg in a small bowl, until well scrambled. Using a basting brush, lightly paint each hand pie with egg.
Bake at 350 degrees for 12 - 15 minutes or until starting to turn golden brown.
