POTATO SAUSAGE HAND PIES

Steps:

• Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat. Drain well.
• In a bowl, mix together the sausage, mashed potatoes, cheese and ground mustard.
• Unroll one pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Gently roll the circle into more of a rectangle shape.
• Cut the pie dough rectangle into 6 equal rectangles.
• Spoon about ⅓ cup of mashed potato mixture onto three of the rectangles that you cut. Spoon the mixture out to about ½ inch of the sides of the dough.
• Place the remaining dough rectangles overtop the potato mixture, matching the edges.
• Use the tines of a fork to press the edges together all around the rectangle.
• Use the tines of a fork to poke a few holes in the top of the hand pie to vent.
• Place the hand pies on a non-stick baking sheet.
• Repeat with the remaining 3 pie crusts to make a total of 12 hand pies.
• Make an egg wash by whisking the egg and milk together in a small bowl
• Brush the top of the hand pies lightly with the egg mixture.
• Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes.
• Serve warm with warmed beef gravy for dipping.
• Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

GREEN CHILE, ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE, AND POTATO HAND PIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add canola oil to a 12-inch nonstick pan over medium heat. Add potatoes, salt, and pepper. Fry until potatoes are fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.
• Add sausage and onion to the same pan. Cook and stir until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of potatoes using a slotted spoon. Stir in green chiles. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature.
• Divide each pie crust into 3 pieces. Roll out each piece into an 8-inch circle. Add 3 tablespoons of the potato-sausage mixture to each circle. Mix Cheddar and Gouda cheeses together; sprinkle 3 tablespoons over the filling.
• Beat egg and milk together to make egg wash. Fold dough over the filling in a semi-circle shape. Brush the edge of the pastry with egg wash; press to seal. Flute the border with a fork. Brush the tops with egg wash and score tops with a fork.
• Space hand pies evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

SAUSAGE PIE IN CRISPY POTATO CRUST

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with nonstick spray.
• Spread the hash browns over a layer of paper towels to air-dry for 10 to 15 minutes (alternatively, you can press them vigorously between layers of paper towels 2 to 3 times).
• In a medium bowl, stir the dried hash browns, melted butter, Parmesan and pepper together. Press the mixture into the base and evenly up the sides of the prepared skillet. Transfer to the oven and bake until the potatoes begin to become golden brown and crisp, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for the filling: Toss the sausage, scallions and 3/4 cup of the Cheddar in a medium bowl to combine.
• In another medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, salt, pepper and hot sauce, if using.
• Carefully press the sausage mixture into the browned crust. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Cheddar. Carefully transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the crust is deeply browned and very crisp and the filling appears set when you gently shake the skillet, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
