Sweet Summer Blackberry Hand Pies
"These blackberry hand pies are packed with the sweet, fruity flavors of a homemade blackberry pie but fit perfectly in your hand. Hand pies are great for easy serving and storing, and they're easier to make for people who don't feel comfortable making a full pie (me included)! When you're planning to cook for a party, it's much less stressful to make a batch of hand pies that are cute and taste delicious with a side of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Simply hand them out at a barbecue or other get together. They're just as a delicious as a full blackberry pie without the extra hassle."

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, and line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.

Rinse the berries well, cut them into pieces and place them in a medium bowl. Add in the sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and flour, and mix well.

When the blackberries go on sale in the summertime I usually buy so many that I have no clue what to do with them, other than to eat them in yogurt, in cereal, or just plain which are all good choices but I've been trying to find a recipe that'll keep the integrity of the blackberries and enhance their natural subtle flavor at the same time. This recipe is perfect, and I like that it's not so sweet that you can't forget you're eating blackberries.

These look so much like those uncrustable sandwiches that kids love so I'm sure it'll be easy to get the whole family to like these! I would like to try these with all different flavors- strawberry or blueberry, mixed berry, lemon or lime! Endless possibilities for this great summer recipe.

I will have to try this recipe. I love blackberry pie and have never thought of making hand pies with the delicious berries. I haven't cut up blackberries when making full size pies. I suppose it would help keep the hand pies sealed better without large lumps. I'll try it for this recipe.
