Mayo Dough Recipe
Apple + Pear Chutney Filling
Directions
Make Mayo Dough
Combine flour, baking powder , salt, and sugar. Mix in mayo into the flour mixture, using a fork, until pea sized pieces form. Start incorporating water, one to two Tablespoon at a time. Use enough water to make a pliable yet slight firm dough. Let rest for 1/2 hour.
Make Apple + Pear Chutney Filling
Chop apple and pear into small cubes, 1/4 inch or so. Combine with the rest of the ingredients…cook over medium heat until all the fruit seems translucent and fully coated in honey. It’ll have a dry, sticky appearance. Let cool completely.
Assembly
Pre-heat oven to 350F. Prepare a pie pan with parchment.
Roll out pie dough to 1/8 to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out squares or rounds, 2 inches to 2.5 inches in width. Cut out 24 pieces.
Egg wash one side pie crust squares or rounds, place 2 tsp of filling in the center, enclose with a second piece of pie crust. Use the tines of a fork to press and seal the edges down. Continue to 11 more hand pies. Brush with egg wash, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
Recipe Note
*Note - You will have extra chutney left over, it stores well in the fridge and goes really well with crackers or toast!
