- When your dough comes together, form it into a disk and wrap in plastic wrap to chill for 30 minutes.

- In a small bowl, add your butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon and stir until well combined.
- On a floured surface with a rolling pin, roll out your pie dough until ¼ inch thick. Cut into squares or rectangles.
- Place one of your dough squares onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and fill with a spoonful of your filling.
- Brush the edges with water and add another dough square on top. Continue with the rest.
- Using a fork, crimp the edges of each pastry and then poke four holes into the middle of each pastry.
- Chill your unbaked pastries in freezer for 15 minutes.
