Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll out the 1 puff pastry sheet on a floured surface and cut into 4 equal rectangles.
Step 2
In a skillet over medium heat, cook 1 lb ground beef and 1 diced onion until beef is browned and onion is soft, about 8 minutes. Stir in 1 tsp dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
Step 3
Spoon the beef mixture onto half of each pastry rectangle, leaving a border. Fold the other half over and press edges with a fork to seal.
Step 4
Beat 1 egg and brush over the tops of the pies. Cut small slits for steam to escape.
Step 5
Bake for 15-18 minutes until pastry is golden and puffed. Let cool 2 minutes before serving.
