Fried apple pies
Fried apple pies are a delicious treat made by filling pastry dough with a sweet apple filling, then frying them until they are golden brown and crispy. They are often dusted with cinnamon sugar for extra flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 large apples peeled, cored, and diced
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 package refrigerated pie crusts
- Oil for frying
- Cinnamon sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine the diced apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the apples are soft and the mixture is thickened, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Roll out the pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Cut each crust into 4 equal squares.
- Place a spoonful of the apple mixture onto one half of each square. Fold the other half of the crust over the filling to create a triangle shape. Use a fork to crimp the edges to seal.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large, deep skillet to 350°F (180°C).
- Carefully add the pies to the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Remove the fried pies from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Dust the fried apple pies with cinnamon sugar while they are still warm.
- Enjoy!
