  • All-purpose flour (for dusting)
  • 2 blueberries (about 10 ounces)
  • 1 finely grated lemon zest
  • 1 fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 sugar
  • 1/4 kosher salt

  • Toss blueberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Brush edges of rectangles with water; mound some blueberries in center of each. Fold dough over, and press edges to seal. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush with egg wash, and sprinkle with raw sugar. Cut slits in tops.
  • Bake hand pies, rotating sheet halfway through, until juices are bubbling and pastry is golden brown, 35–40 minutes (juices will run onto parchment). Transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
