Perfectly flakey and sweet peach hand pies made in the air fryer! You are going to love just how perfect these air fryer hand pies are!
Peaches are one of my very favorite fruit, ever. I love eating them fresh and I love baking with them. Luckily. the house we moved into a few years ago came with a mature peach tree. So I can get my peach fix quite easily in the summer.
Other peach recipes I have shares are classic peach cobbler, instant pot peach cobbler, homemade iced peach tea, and instant pot peach jam.

Air Fryer Peach Hand Pies
These peach hand pies are made with fresh, diced peaches and wrapped in fresh pie dough. It cooks up quickly in the air fryer and comes out with a perfectly buttery and flakey crust. Yum! (make sure to check out our recipe for air fryer apple hand pies, too)
How do you store hand pies?
These hand pies can be stored in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Hand pies can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
What kind of peaches should I use?
I recommend using freestone peaches whenever possible. Free-stone peaches refer to the type of peach that easily separates the fruit from the pit. If you are unsure which peaches are freestone, you can just ask your grocer.
Frozen peaches may also be used to make these hand pies, just defrost them at room temperature before cooking.
How do you make air fryer peach hand pies?
- Start with two sheets of refrigerated pie dough, or make your own pie dough. I love this recipe for Mel’s Kitchen Cafe.
- Let the pie dough sit out and come to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, combine diced peaches with sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice. Stir well. Let sit for 10 minutes.
- Once your peaches have sat, drain off the juice, reserving 1 tablespoon of juice. Discard the remaining juice.
- Mix the 1 tablespoon juice with cornstarch until smooth.
- Mix it back into the peaches and stir.
- Preheat air fryer to 350ºF.
- Using a 5-inch biscuit cutter or a 5-inch plate as a template, cut around the plate to make a 5-inch round. Continue until you run out of dough, balling it up, and rolling it out again. You will want to make 8 rounds.
- Fill the center of each round with a heaping tablespoon of peaches.
- Brush water around the edges of the pie crust.
- Fold the dough over to form a half-circle and use a fork to crimp the edges.
- Use a sharp knife to cut three small slits in the top.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients until you have 8 peach hand pies.
- Spray the top of each pie with non-stick cooking spray.
- Arrange hand pies in the air fryer so they are not touching (you will need to work in batches).
- Air fry for 13-15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Carefully remove the hand pies and cook any remaining pies.
- While the pies are cooling, whisk together powder sugar, vanilla extract, and milk.
- Use a fork to drizzle the icing over the peach hand pies.
- Serve and enjoy!

Frozen and defrosted peaches made be used in place of fresh peaches.
Freestone peaches work best, if possible.
