The image shows a round, golden-brown pastry with a crimped edge, resting on a white plate with a white marbled surface background. On top of the whole pastry, there is a half piece revealing three layers: a light brown crunchy crumb topping, a toasted white marshmallow layer with some browning, and a thin dark chocolate layer beneath it.

Ingredients

1/2 cup mini marshmallows
2 bars chocolate, chopped into small pieces
3/4 cup crushed graham crackers (reserve half for topping)
Water (for sealing edges)
14.1 oz refrigerated pie dough
2 tbsp salted butter, melted
Chocolate syrup (for dipping, optional)
Marshmallow cream (for dipping, optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Remove pie dough from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature following package instructions. Use a 3-inch cookie cutter to cut out as many circles as possible, placing them close together.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine chopped chocolate, mini marshmallows, and half of the crushed graham crackers. Stir until evenly mixed.
Step 3: Place about one tablespoon of the filling onto half of the dough circles. Moisten the edges with water, top each with another dough circle, then press gently to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges securely.
Step 4: Brush the tops of each sealed pie with melted butter. Sprinkle the reserved crushed graham crackers evenly on top.
Step 5: Preheat the air fryer to 350°F for 5 minutes. Lightly spray the basket with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange 2-4 pies in the basket without touching and air fry for about 10 minutes until golden brown and filling is melted. Transfer pies to a wire rack to cool, then repeat with remaining pies.
Step 6: Serve warm with chocolate syrup and marshmallow cream for dipping if desired. Enjoy!

Tips & Variations

Use extra chocolate inside the filling for a richer, gooier center.
Swap regular graham crackers for cinnamon or chocolate graham crackers for a different flavor twist.
If you don’t have an air fryer, bake the pies at 375°F for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
For a fun presentation, drizzle chocolate syrup over the finished pies instead of dipping.

Storage

Store leftover hand pies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in an air fryer or oven at 300°F for 3-5 minutes to restore crispiness and warm the filling. Avoid microwaving to prevent soggy crusts.

How to Serve

The image shows a close-up of seven golden-brown hand pies arranged on a dark baking tray lined with a cloth. Each hand pie is round with a crimped edge that creates a raised rim around the smiling curve of the top crust. The crusts are lightly brushed with an egg wash, giving a shiny, slightly uneven surface with sprinklings of coarse sugar that adds crunchy texture and a caramelized color contrast. The hand pies are stacked and slightly overlapping one another, revealing their puffed, flaky pastry layers. The tray is set on a white marbled texture, enhancing the warm tones of the baked pies. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make these hand pies ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the pies and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours before air frying. Just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time if cooking directly from refrigerated.

Can I freeze the mini s’mores pies?

Absolutely. Freeze unbaked pies on a baking sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer-safe container. Air fry from frozen, adding a couple of extra minutes to the cooking time.

Ingredients

Scale

Mini Pies

1/2 cup mini marshmallows
2 bars chocolate (chopped into small pieces)
3/4 cup crushed graham crackers (reserve half for topping)
Water (for sealing edges)
14.1 oz refrigerated pie dough
2 tbsp salted butter (melted)

For Serving (Optional)

Chocolate syrup (for dipping)
Marshmallow cream (for dipping)

Instructions

Prepare the Pie Dough: Remove the refrigerated pie crusts from their packaging and let them come to room temperature as per package instructions. Once softened, use a 3-inch cookie cutter to cut as many circles as possible from the dough, placing cuts closely together to maximize pie quantity.
Make the S’mores Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine chopped chocolate pieces, mini marshmallows, and half of the crushed graham crackers. Stir until evenly combined. For an extra gooey center, add some additional chocolate pieces.
Fill and Seal the Mini Pies: Place about one tablespoon of the filling mixture into the center of half of the pie dough rounds. Moisten the edge of each filled dough circle with water using your finger. Top each with another dough circle and press to seal. Use a fork to crimp edges decoratively and securely.
Butter and Top the Pies: Brush melted salted butter over the tops of each sealed mini pie. Sprinkle the reserved crushed graham cracker crumbs evenly over the buttered tops.
Air Fry the Mini S’mores Pies: Preheat air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with nonstick spray. Arrange 2-4 pies in the basket without touching. Air fry for approximately 10 minutes or until the crusts turn golden brown and the filling melts. For extra crunch, air fry an additional minute, monitoring closely to prevent burning. Transfer pies carefully to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining pies.
Serve with Dipping Sauces: Arrange the cooled mini pies on a serving platter. Serve with chocolate syrup and marshmallow cream on the side for dipping. Enjoy warm for best flavor and texture.

Notes

Ensure the pie dough is at room temperature before cutting to avoid tearing.
You can add extra chocolate in the filling for a richer texture.
Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; pies should not touch to cook evenly.
Watch the pies closely during the final minutes of air frying to prevent burning.
Serve slightly warm with dipping sauces for the best experience.
These pies can be frozen before air frying; just increase air fry time slightly when cooking from frozen.
