Now let's talk about how easy these hand pies are to make. All you need is some store-bought pie crust (or you can make your own if you're feeling ambitious), some eggs, bacon, and cheese. Simply roll out the pie crust, cut it into circles (a biscuit cutter or glass works great for this), fill with a spoonful of eggs, a slice of bacon, and a sprinkle of cheese, and then fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape. Use a fork to press the edges together and then bake in the oven until the crust is golden brown and the eggs are cooked through. It's as simple as that!
In addition to being delicious and easy to make, these hand pies are also budget-friendly. Pie crust and eggs are both relatively inexpensive ingredients, and a little bit of bacon and cheese goes a long way. This makes these hand pies a great option for families on a tight budget.
