- 3. **(If using fresh apples: For the filling: Add 2 TBS butter to a large saute pan and melt. Add 4 peeled, cored and chopped apples, sugar, cinnamon, and 1 tsp lemon juice and cook over medium heat until the apples are soft, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, mash slightly and cool.)
- 4. Roll each biscuit into a 5-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Place about 1 tablespoon apple mixture on half of each biscuit circle. To seal pies, dip fingers in water and moisten edges of circles. Fold in half, making sure edges are even. Using a fork dipped in flour, press edges firmly together to seal.
- 5. Pour oil to a depth of 1/2 inch into a heavy skillet, or use deep fryer. Fry pies in hot oil (370°) over medium-high heat until golden, turning once. Don't rush it because you want to make sure the biscuit is cooked completely through.

Steps:
- In a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar and salt. Add butter and pulse until mixture forms pea-size crumbs. Pulse in egg mixture a tablespoon at a time, until dough just comes together (you may not need all the egg mixture). Divide dough into 10 equal pieces. Flatten into disks with your palm, wrap in plastic and chill for at least 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make filling: Using a paring knife, peel peaches if desired (if they are ripe, peels slip right off) and pit them; slice 1/4-inch thick. Transfer peaches to a large skillet. Stir in sugar, tapioca, bourbon, lemon juice and cinnamon. Let sit for 10 minutes, then bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook until sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer mixture to a bowl, preferably metal, and freeze for at least 20 minutes to cool, stirring once or twice.
- Fill a medium pot with 4 inches of oil and heat to 375 degrees. On a floured surface, roll out dough into 6-inch rounds. Place a heaping tablespoon of filling in center of each round. Using a pastry brush, lightly moisten edges of each circle with water. Fold dough over filling, making a semicircle, and pinch edges to seal.
- Fry pies in batches until dark golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Sprinkle immediately with cinnamon sugar.

PEACH FRIED PIES
My Grandmother always used dried fruit for the filling. Since I couldn't find the dried fruit at the supermarket, I decided to used canned peaches. Fortunately, it worked out well.

Steps:
- Drain the peaches, reserving the syrup. Using a fork or potato masher, mash the peaches; set aside. In a heavy medium saucepan, combine sugars, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add the reserved syrup; mix well. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture is thickened. Add the butter and lemon juice; then the peaches. Refrigerate until the filling is chilled or overnight.
- Dough: Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Using a fork or pastry blender, cut in butter. Add the milk and stir until a soft dough forms.
- The dough can be made into balls and then rolled out on a floured surface to make 5-6" circles. Also, on a floured surface, the dough can be rolled out to 1/8" thick and then cut out 5-6" circles. (My Grandmother used a saucer to cut out the circles).
- Spoon 2 generous tablespoons of filling in the center of the dough, fold and crimp the edges. Be sure the edges are sealed so the filling won't leak. Fill a heavy skillet with about an inch of oil and heat to 360 degrees. Place two or three pies in the hot oil; but do not overcrowd it. Fry until golden brown on each side. Drain the pies on paper towels. Place warm pies on wire rack and glaze.
- Combine powdered sugar, milk and almond extract. Drizzle over warm pies. Then combine cinnamon chips and shortening in a microwave safe bowl. Melt the mixture stirring at 15 second intervals. Drizzle over the powdered sugar glaze, if desired.
