Description
These Raspberry Nutella Heart Pies are a delightful treat with a sweet strawberry filling and rich Nutella tucked inside flaky crusts. Simple to make, they are perfect for sharing at any gathering, or a sweet indulgence for yourself!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package pre-made pie crusts (or you can make your own pie crust)
- Nutella
- 1 cup diced strawberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 egg
- 1–2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Wash, de-stem, and dice the strawberries. Mix them in a bowl with sugar and cornstarch until evenly coated. Let them rest a few minutes.
- Unroll the first pie crust on a clean surface and cut out hearts, placing them on a greased cookie sheet or parchment-lined sheet. Gather leftover dough, re-roll, and continue cutting hearts until dough is used. Reserve the second crust for topping.
- Spread 1-2 teaspoons of Nutella in the center of each heart. If needed, microwave for 15-20 seconds to soften for easier spreading.
- Add a spoonful of the strawberry filling to each heart.
- Unroll the second pie crust and cut out the same number of hearts to top each pie. Seal the edges with a fork.
- Poke small holes in the tops for venting during baking.
- Whisk together egg and water until light yellow and uniform. Brush the mixture onto the tops of the pies.
- Bake for about 12-14 minutes, or until golden brown.
Notes
For a homemade pie crust, ensure it’s chilled for easier handling.
Feel free to experiment with other fillings like cherries or raspberries if you prefer.
These pies can be served warm or at room temperature.
