To prepare the Nutella filling, in a food processor, pulse the nuts to form a smooth powder. Set aside until required. Combine the Nutella along with powdered walnuts and stir to combine.
Whisk the honey along with a teaspoon of milk and keep aside. This will be the honey wash to coat the crust. The coating of honey on the top of the crust gives it a good color.
Bring out the pie dough from the fridge. Roll out the pie dough into a large circular disc. Use a cookie cutter and cut small circular discs from the dough.
Spoon a tablespoon of Nutella filling equally in the centre of the disc, leaving an inch border along the sides.
Brush the border of the crust with the egg wash and then fold the top half of the circle over the lower half, creating a half-moon shape. Gently press the edges with a fork to seal.
Use a small knife to cut a half an inch slit on the top of each pie to release steam while baking.
Brush each pie with honey wash and place them on a greased baking sheet. Proceed the same way with the remaining circular cut dough.
Chill the pies in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before baking.
Meanwhile pre-heat the oven at 180 C. Grease a baking sheet with little oil or line with parchment paper.
Bake the pies until they are golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. Cool the Nutella Filled Hand Pies Recipe on the wire rack for few minutes before serving.
