What’s not to love about hand pies? These pocket-sized treats are cute, portable and appeal to nearly everyone. And that appeal skyrockets when they are stuffed with a savory, delicious filling, like these vegan Irish hand pies. I love hand pies – from vegan sausage rolls to savory Indian samosas to these chickpea mushroom turnovers. These meatless Irish hand pies, which I’ve been making for many years now, are right up there with these other favorites. When I first posted these readers loved them but some said they had too much filling left over. I’ve modified the recipe to address that concern and to make these even more delicious. Try them – once you sink your teeth into the flaky wrapper, you’ll be hooked for good!
Why you will love this recipe
Crispy, flaky and delicious. The contrasting textures of the crunchy, golden crust and the soft, textured filling are amazing together. The filling is lightly but perfectly seasoned. Easy recipe. These hand pies are not complicated at all. The crust comes together in minutes and so does the filling. Adult and kid-friendly. Kids and adults will both love these hand pies and they’ll be gone before you know it! Vegan and nut-free, can be soy-free.
