These tiny, cherry hand pies are portable and patriotic — a foolproof way to celebrate Fourth of July. Considerably less messy to serve than their pie tin coun-terparts, petite cherry pies are the ideal companion for another famous American food, the hot dog. And they’re easy as pie.We cannot tell a liePetite cherry hand pies are portable and patrioticPreP tiP: Making cherry pie doesn’t have to be the pits. To ensure your kitchen doesn’t look like a crime scene, invest in a handheld cherry pitter. Each quick, satisfying pop will make you smile and congratulate yourself on your shrewd purchase. Sans pitter? A sharp paring knife and an hour to kill will net you the same results.Petite cherry hand PiesMakes about 16 mini piesinGredients11⁄2 tablespoons cornstarch2 cups fresh cherries, stemmed and pitted2⁄3 cup dried cherries or mixed berries1⁄2 cup sugar1 teaspoon vanilla extract1⁄8 teaspoon kosher salt2 tablespoons kirsch, cherry brandyChilled pie dough, store-bought or homemade 1 large egg white11⁄2 teaspoon raw sugardirectionsWhisk together the cornstarch and 11⁄2 tablespoons cold water in a small bowl. The mixture should be a pourable slurry with the cornstarch completely dissolved. Combine fresh cher-ries and next 4 ingredients in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasion-ally, until cherries release their juices. Add cornstarch mixture and stir to incorporate. Bring mixture to a boil, constantly stirring. Remove from heat and stir in brandy. Let mixture cool to room temperature.Remove pie dough from refrigerator and let stand 3 to 5 minutes. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to a 1⁄8-inch thickness in the shape of a rectangle. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut dough into 16 rectangles. Reroll any remaining scraps. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk egg white and 1 table-spoon water in a small bowl for egg wash. Working with 1 rect-angle at a time, place on a work surface and brush edges with egg wash. Scoop 2 tablespoons cherry mixture onto one half, avoiding the edges. Fold dough over filling so that all ends meet, forming a small packet. Crimp edges with a fork to seal. Using a sharp knife, cut a few slits in top of pie to vent. Place on pre-pared baking sheet; repeat with remaining dough and filling. Brush tops with egg wash, then sprinkle with raw sugar. Chill mini pies for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 F. Bake pies until tops and bottoms are golden brown, 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes on baking sheet. Transfer to wire racks; let cool completely.
