Mix together the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and salt in a medium bowl.
Roll out the piecrusts (or shortcrust pastry roll) and cut out 6-8 (4-inch) individual circles.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the blueberry filling in the center of each circle.
Moisten edges of dough with water, and fold the dough over the filling to form a half moon shape.
Using a fork, gently crimp the edges of the piecrust together. Then cut three slits on the top of the hand pies.

Recipe Tips

Since air fryer temperatures can vary depending on the make and model, this recipe includes a range of suggested cook times. I recommend starting with less time, checking for doneness, and then adding more time as needed.
For those with dietary restrictions, you can make these hand pies using prepared gluten free or vegan piecrust.
Vary the filling flavour by swapping the blueberries for raspberries or blackberries. Other delicious filling versions include finely-chopped apple and cinnamon, or chocolately Nutella.
