Ugly Fried Pies

These fried pies look like they were shook out of the ugly tree and hit every branch going down…but they are yummy and a great snack. My grandma used to make these for me when I was a child and the applesauce is my all time favorite.

 

Can regular biscuits (not those giant Grandes)

Organic applesauce or any canned fruit pie filling

Cinnamon

Sugar

Margerine or oil for frying

Open can of biscuits and separate. Lightly flour work surface and roll out each biscuit until it is flat and thin about triple its size. Spoon about 1-1 ½ Tbs fruit filling in center. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Fold over to make a crescent pie and crimp edges with fork. You can dip the fork in water and it will seal the edges a bit better.

Heat skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Add pies and fry each side until browned and dough is cooked. Remove to plate to cool. After pies have cooled store in fridge for a yummy cold snack!
