Title: Apricot & Peach Fried Pies
Categories: Pastry, Fruits, Snacks
Yield: 18 Pies
MMMMM--------------------------DOUGH---------------------------------
4 c A-P flour
2 ts Salt
1 c Shortening or lard
1 c Milk
MMMMM-------------------------FILLING--------------------------------
8 oz Dried apricots
6 oz Pkg dried peaches
3/4 c White sugar
Water to cover
2 c Oil for frying
TO MAKE CRUST: In a large bowl, mix together flour and
salt. Cut in shortening until mixture is crumbly. Mix in
milk and stir until dough forms a ball. Roll out dough
and cut into 18 6" circles. Set aside.
TO MAKE FILLING: In a large saucepan, combine apricots,
peaches, and sugar. Add enough water to cover fruit.
Cover pan and cook over low heat until fruit is falling
apart. Remove lid and continue to cook until water is
evaporated.
Place oil or shortening in small high-sided skillet.
Place over medium heat. Spoon equal amounts of filling
into each pastry circle and fold in half. Seal pastry
with a fork dipped in cold water.
Fry a few pies at a time in hot oil, browning on both
sides. Drain pies on paper towels.
COOK'S NOTE: If you use shortening, like Crisco, melt it
so it's 2" deep.
