Fried Pies

Apple Fried Pie, Blueberry Cream Cheese Pie, and Chocolate Fried Pie are all explained in this video. This dessert uses homemade biscuit dough, and you can choose what filling to place inside. Fried Pies are a Southern treat and so delicious!
You really need to watch the video for all the helpful tips I give along the way but here is the basic pie crust recipe and use whatever fruit filling you desire.
Fried Pies
2 cups All Purpose Flour (Plain Flour, NOT self-rising) (You can use self-rising flour except they will puff up more and I wanted mine NOT to puff up.)
1 Heaping Tablespoon of Crisco Shortening (Lard)
1 Tablespoon of Sour Cream
¾ cup Whole Buttermilk is what I used
1/8 Cup Vegetable Oil (I used Wesson brand)
Stir up and put in refrigerator to chill for about 10 minutes.
I roll my dough out real thin and cut my circles with my sifter.
These were fried in Avocado Oil or you can use Wesson Vegetable Oil or any oil that takes a high heat.
Chocolate filling is 1/2 c. soft butter, 2 T. cocoa, 1/2 c. powdered sugar. Mix up and it's ready.
Glaze is 1 c powdered sugar and 2 T. water. Mix and drizzle over pies.
They fry up really quick. Makes approx. 10 pies.
