Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (or gluten-free blend)
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup chilled coconut oil or vegan butter
  • 34 tbsp cold water
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 12 tbsp sugar or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot powder
  • ½ cup powdered sugar

  • Instructions

    1. In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in chilled coconut oil until mixture is crumbly.

    2. Add cold water 1 tbsp at a time, mixing until dough forms. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.

    3. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    4. Roll chilled dough on a floured surface to ¼” thickness. Cut out 16 ghost shapes using a cookie cutter.

    5. In a small bowl, combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch.

    6. Place 8 ghost cutouts on the baking sheet. Spoon 1–2 tsp filling onto each. Top with remaining cutouts and seal edges with a fork.

    7. Brush each hand pie with plant-based milk. Bake 18–22 minutes until golden.

    8. Cool on a wire rack. Whisk powdered sugar with lemon juice or plant milk until smooth; drizzle over pies.
