Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package pre-made pie crusts
- nutella
- 1 cup diced strawberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 egg
- 1–2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Prepare the strawberry filling by washing, de-stemming, and dicing the strawberries. Mix them with sugar and cornstarch until well coated and set aside.
- Unroll the first pie crust on a clean surface or parchment paper. Cut out heart shapes and place them on a greased cookie sheet, keeping space between each pie. Gather excess dough to cut additional hearts from.
- Spread 1-2 teaspoons of Nutella in the center of each heart. Microwave the Nutella briefly if needed to soften it for easier spreading.
- Add spoonfuls of the strawberry filling to each heart, ensuring plenty of deliciousness.
- Unroll the second pie crust and cut heart shapes to place on top of each filled pie. Seal the edges by pressing down with a fork.
- Make small holes in the top of each pie for venting during baking.
- Whisk together the egg and water until smooth and lightly colored. Adjust with more water if necessary.
- Brush the egg wash lightly over the tops of the pies before baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-14 minutes until golden brown.
Notes
Feel free to use fresh or frozen strawberries, just make sure they are thawed and drained if using frozen.
You can sprinkle some powdered sugar over the pies after baking for an extra touch of sweetness.
