Directions

  1. Prepare the Pie Dough: Let the refrigerated pie dough come to room temperature. Use a 3-inch cookie cutter to cut circles from the dough, placing them close together.

  2. Make the S’mores Filling: In a medium bowl, mix chopped chocolate bars, marshmallows, and half of the crushed graham crackers. Stir until combined.

  3. Fill and Seal the Mini Pies: Place 1 tablespoon of the s’mores filling on half of the dough circles. Moisten the edges with water, top with another dough circle, and press gently to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges securely.

  4. Butter and Top the Pies: Brush the tops of the pies with melted butter and sprinkle with the remaining graham cracker crumbs.

  5. Air Fry the Mini S’mores Pies: Preheat the air fryer to 350°F for 5 minutes. Lightly spray the basket with nonstick spray and place 2-4 pies inside. Air fry for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining pies.

  6. Serve: Arrange the pies on a platter and offer chocolate syrup or marshmallow cream for dipping. Enjoy warm!

FAQs

What can I use if I don’t have an air fryer?

You can bake these in the oven at 375°F for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Just keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.

Can I make these hand pies ahead of time?

Yes! You can prepare the pies, seal them, and refrigerate them until ready to air fry. Just bake them fresh before serving!

How can I store leftover pies?

Store leftover pies in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days in the fridge. Reheat in the air fryer to restore crispiness.

Can I use store-bought chocolate chips instead of chocolate bars?

Yes, chocolate chips will work fine. Just ensure they’re chopped into smaller pieces for an even filling.

Can I use homemade pie dough?

Absolutely! You can substitute store-bought dough with your homemade version for an extra personal touch.

Can I freeze these pies?

Yes, freeze the unbaked pies for up to 1 month. When ready to bake, air fry directly from frozen, adding a couple of extra minutes to the cook time.

How do I know when the pies are done?

The pies should be golden brown on top and slightly crispy. If you’re unsure, check the center with a toothpick—it should come out clean.

Can I make these pies larger?

You can use a larger cookie cutter to make bigger pies, but make sure to adjust the cooking time to account for the larger size.

Can I use different fillings?

Absolutely! Feel free to get creative with fillings—add peanut butter, caramel, or different types of chocolate for variety.

What’s the best way to seal the edges?

Use water to moisten the edges, and then press gently with a fork to crimp them securely. This helps to keep the filling from leaking during cooking.
