Bring to boil; reduce heat and cook 1 min. or until fruit has softened and syrup has thickened. Remove from heat; cool to room temp.

Roll one dough disk to 16”x8” rectangle. Cut into eight 4”x4” squares. Place 1/4 cup filling in center of 4 squares. Brush edges with beaten egg. Top with second dough square; crimp edges with fork. Brush pies with remaining egg wash; cut a few small slits in dough and if desired, sprinkle with sparkling sugar. Repeat with second dough disk and remaining filling. Place on parchment lined baking sheets. Bake 20 min. or until golden brown.
