Easy Air Fryer Blueberry Hand Pies (Ready in Minutes, No Oven!)

Are you “team cake” or “team pie”? Some of our family members seem to like both equally, but when it comes to my daughter and I, we take after my dad. We are firmly Team Pie!

Oh, cake is good but even if you offered me some every day, I would only eat it once in a while. Pie – now that’s a different story! It never lasts for very long in our home. My dad loved it so much he even would eat leftover pie as his breakfast!!!

Blueberry pie was never one of my favourites though. That is, until I tried these air fryer blueberry pies. Oh. My. Yumminess.  The fact that they are so incredibly easy to make doesn’t hurt either. Don’t care for blueberries? You can make these with pretty much any fruit. 

Air Fryer Blueberry Hand Pie Recipe

Prep time: 10 min

Cook time: 7-10 min

Total time: ~20 min

Servings: 8 mini pies (estimate)

Ingredients:

• 1 cup fresh blueberries or canned blueberry pie filling (canned pie filling saves steps)
• ½ tablespoon butter
• ¼ cup water
• ¼ cup sugar (add a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness)
• 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
• 2 tablespoons neutral oil (or cooking spray to keep the pies from sticking)
• Optional: coarse sugar for sprinkle

Note: you can use blueberry jam or pie filling instead of making your own filling to make it even easier. Try it with different flavours too!

Directions:

• Cook filling until thick and glossy (like a loose jam).
• Roll out biscuit dough.
• Fill, crimp, air fry until golden (about 7-10 min). Tip: Brush a little egg wash on the crust for a golden finish.
• Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket; work in batches so pies crisp evenly.
• Cool briefly, dust with sugar.

Variations

• Use canned apple or cherry pie filling instead of blueberries.
• Add lemon zest to the filling for extra brightness.
• Sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top for a warm flavor twist.

Tips for Success

• Ensure air fryer is fully preheated as this improves crisping.
• If berries are very juicy, add a teaspoon of cornstarch to thicken filling slightly.
• For an extra flaky crust, lightly chill dough before assembling.
