Ingredients

FOR THE CRUST:
2-1/4 cups All-purpose Flour
2 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar
1 teaspoon Salt
2/3 cups Vegetable Oil
1/4 cups Cold Water
FOR THE FILLING:
1/3 cups Nutella
1 whole Peeled, Medium-sized, Ripe Banana, Sliced
FOR ASSEMBLY:
1 whole Egg, Lightly Beaten
1/4 cups Raw Sugar (Granulated Sugar Can Be Substituted)

Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 425 F.
2

Make the crust. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar and salt. Add the vegetable oil and water and mix until just combined. Do not over-mix.
3

Roll out the dough on a floured surface, until it's nice and thin. Cut out heart shapes with a cookie cutter (make sure you have an even number of hearts; you can re-roll the scraps of dough to make more).
4

Place half of the hearts on an un-greased baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each.
5

Place about 2 teaspoons of Nutella on the hearts that you placed on the baking sheet. Place a slice of banana on top of the Nutella (or a slice of strawberries or 3-4 blueberries.)
6

Cover each of the hearts with the remaining hearts. Seal the edges of the hearts by pressing the seams together with a fork.
7

Brush the tops of the pies with the egg, and sprinkle with the raw sugar.
8

Bake at 425 F for 5 minutes, then lower the oven temperature to 350 F. Bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the pies are golden brown. Remove pan from oven. Let pies cool and serve.
