Nanny’s Fried Pies

Description
I spent a lot of time with my Nanny growing up and I loved helping her in the kitchen. She made homemade peach fried pies and I always crimped the edges. A few years before Nanny passed away, she sent me her recipe box with lots of family favorites. She even hand wrote little notes to me on some of the recipes. I was very happy to find this recipe tucked inside the recipe box.
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose Flour
- ½ cups Crisco
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 dash Salt
- 5 Tablespoons Water (I Used 6)
- 8 Tablespoons Cooked Down Fruit Of Your Choosing
Preparation
Mix all together except fruit.
Roll out and cut crusts the size of a saucer. (I placed a bowl upside down on mine to cut it.)
Put two tablespoons of cooked-down fruit (we like peaches…even better if you can get them from a local farmer!!) in center of rounds.
Fold and pinch edges together to seal. (I used the edge of a fork once I sealed it to give it that crimped look.)
Fry in one inch deep oil. Turn and cook other side. When both sides are browned, remove from oil to a napkin to drain.
