Fried Apple Pies

Here is a recipe that reminds me of my Mom because she made them for me, my brothers and sister. They were the best when they were hot.

Fried Apple Pies

8 ounces fried apples
1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 (10-count) can refrigerated biscuit dough
Vegetable oil for frying

Combine dried apples and water in a medium saucepan.
Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until apples are tender.
Remove from heat and allow to cool for approximately 30 minutes.
Chop cooked apples into smaller pieces, if desired.
Stir in sugar and butter or margarine.
Place in an airtight container and refrigerate overnight.
Roll each biscuit into a 5-inch circle on a lightly floured surface.
Place approximately 2 tablespoons of apple mixture on half of each biscuit circle.
Lightly coat edge of biscuit with water.
Fold biscuit circle in half and use tines of fork to seal edges of dough.
Add oil to skillet to a depth of 1/2 inch and heat oil to 350 degrees. (Electric skillet works best.)
Carefully place pies into hot oil and cook on both sides until golden, turning once.
Drain well.

All I can say is yum and thanks Mom for a wonderful memory.
