Time 1h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 ounces dried apricots
water to cover
½ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon butter
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (15 ounce) package frozen prepared pie crusts, thawed
½ cup vegetable oil for frying
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Place apricots in a saucepan, and add water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, or until tender. Drain, reserving 5 tablespoons liquid.
  • Place apricots and reserved liquid in a food processor container fitted with steel blade. Process until smooth. Add sugar, butter, and cinnamon; process until blended.
  • Roll out one crust on lightly floured surface and cut it into six 4 inch squares. Place 1 tablespoon apricot filling in the center of each square. Fold each square in half diagonally to form a triangle. Press a fork dipped in flour onto the edges to seal, and poke tops to permit steam to escape. Repeat with remaining crust and apricot mixture.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Cook triangles, a few at a time, 2 to 3 minutes on each side; fry until the crust is golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.

Categories     Fruit Desserts

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 can(s) fruit pie filling (or 2 c. of your favorite home made pie filling)
2 pillsbury refrigerated pie crusts.
canola oil for deep frying
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Lay out pie crust. Use a wide mouth jar or glass to cut circles in pie crust.
  • 2. Spoon a tbsp. pie filling on half the circle and fold crust over. Seal edges with a fork
  • 3. Fry in hot oil until golden brown.
  • 4. Drain on paper towels. Cool slightly and sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fruit: Not all fruits are created equal when it comes to frying. Some fruits, like apples and pears, hold their shape well and have a nice balance of sweetness and tartness. Others, like berries and bananas, are more delicate and can easily overcook.
  • Use a light touch: When frying fruit, it's important to be gentle. Don't overcrowd the pan or stir the fruit too much, or you'll end up with mush.
  • Cook the fruit until it's just tender: You don't want to overcook the fruit, or it will become tough and chewy. A good rule of thumb is to cook the fruit until it's just tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Serve the fruit warm or at room temperature: Fried fruit is best served warm or at room temperature. This allows the flavors to really shine through.

Conclusion:

Fried fruit pies are a delicious and easy way to enjoy your favorite fruits. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious dessert that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give fried fruit pies a try. You won't be disappointed!
