Blueberry Hand Pies

Crust (I used one roll of the Pillsbury ready made crust)
2 cups of fresh blueberries
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg + 1 teaspoon of water - whisked together
1 tablespoon sugar for topping

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Roll out the dough and cut into 6 rectangles.

In a bowl mix the blueberries, lemon juice, lemon zest, 1/4 cup of sugar and the salt and toss that all together.  Then in the middle of each rectangle put a spoonful of the blueberry mixture.  Before folding over brush the edges with water to help once you do fold them over.

Then fold them over and make sure you press the edges together.  Brush each one with the egg wash and then top with a little sugar and cut 2 slits in the top of each one.

Then spray a cookie sheet with PAM and then place them on there and bake for 30 minutes, rotating them half way through.  Once cooked transfer to a wire rack and then either serve warm or room temperature.

Enjoy!!!!
