Making Fried Pies the Easy Way!: 4/10/23

When I canned up jar after jar of apple pie filling a couple of years ago, I knew that at some point I would try using it as filling for fried pies.  Today I did that, but opening a jar of apple pie filling instead of making it from scratch wasn't the only short cut I utilized.  I also pulled store bought rolls of pie crust from the freezer and after they thawed set to work.

I unrolled the pie crusts and laid them out flat.  Once that was done, I placed a saucer upside down on the dough and cut out circles using the saucer as my template.  I got 2 circles out of each pie crust.

Once I had the circles cut out, I opened up a jar of apple pie filling and spooned a couple of heaping tablespoons on each circle towards one side.  

I then folded the dough over and used a wet fork to seal the edges.

I deep fried them in peanut oil for about 5 minutes turning once and the rest is history!  Both hubby and I are very pleased with the taste of the end product, and they couldn't have been easier to make!

Until next time ...
