Roll out the refrigerated pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Use a round cutter (or a hand pie mold) to cut circles from the crust. On half of the circles, spread a thin layer of cream cheese mixture, leaving a border. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of strawberry mixture on top. Brush the edges with beaten egg white, then place another crust circle on top. Seal by pressing with a fork or using the hand pie mold.

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 3 minutes. Place the pies in a single layer in the air fryer basket (don’t overcrowd). Brush the tops with egg white for a golden finish. Air fry for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through if needed.

Let the pies cool slightly before serving. They’ll be hot inside!
