When does the voting start, and is it going to be on this tread?
CakesByLJ,, Thanks , theres nothing better then the ole granny memories ! I would love to know how to make the fried apple pies, they sound delicious, If I ate them as a kid I dont remember them , But that could of been when I was going through my picky stage ( I dont like this and that food ) LOL! Anyone care to share a recipe ???
fiddlesticks, I never made fried pies, but perhaps Sharon or Lea could assist here.... 
They are still very popular though. I met a mother/daughter who have a fried pie business. They travel the circuit and sell them in a consession.. fresh homemade fried pies~! and they are looking to grow and expand because business is so good... I tasted them, and they are good, but of course, the recipe is a secret 
The mom even makes her own filling for them... amazing, huh.. 
Take your favorite apple pie filling (I make my own ) .. use your biscuit recipe.. add a little more crisco then normal to it... and fry in a bit of fat YUMMY... Ohhh yes after they come out .. sprinkle them hot with sugar YUMMMY
Ok I'll go in sugar coma now LOL
This is how I do mine, but I seen them done other ways over many of years.
Same as what Christi said....mix up your favorite apple filling mixture (this is what I do) or you can use canned pie filling, (I like to kind of chop my apples up some, like a dice but a little bigger)....I will add to mine, like cinnamon, tiny bit of apple spice, and a little nutmeg, and sugar (sweeten to your taste). I will also add about 1/2 cup or so of "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" and sometimes I will cook my apple mixture up a little on the stove top. Some people will cook them up to almost a apple butter texture, but I like mine to where I can still bite the apple.
I make my biscuit dough (learn from my grandmother), I will add a little bit of cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg to my biscuit dough (but not much)..... (some people will use canned biscuits if they are in a hurry or don't feel like mixing up the dough mixture ). Take the biscuit or some dough and roll it out to make a circle (I am guessing about the size of a saucer, maybe a little smaller (for bigger ones, or take a big biscuit cutter for a smaller size one). Once it is rolled out put some of the apple mixture on the rolled out dough, BUT do it to where you can fold it over like a turnover. Take a fork and press edges together, it will look like a what I call a half moon shape, well you can also say a omelet shape.
Now at this point you fry them in a little bit of oil (I use oil)....I would say maybe enough to almost cover bottom of fry pan (can add more if needed).....fry them till the dough is done. Them sprinkle them with the sugar as Christi said, you can even make a mixture of cinnamon sugar to sprinkle on them....do that right as you take them out while hot like Christi said.
You can also bake them like baking a biscuit and them make a mixture of PS and milk, to drizzle over them. Also you can take some melted butter brush over the tops (when about half baked) then sprinkle sugar over that and finish baking, this will give them a little sugar crusting.
It might sound hard, but it is really isn't and with this you can play around with trying other things mix in with the apples.
O.K. now Christi would you please be willing to share your fried peach pie recipe. I have not try those yet. PLEASEEEEEEE, PLEASEEEEEEEEE!!!! with sugar on top. 
Oh by the way LOVE the new avatar.....you wildcat! 
Your right I never seen my grandmothers or my mother measure anything. So I really had to watch close, when they were showing me things.
Lea....could I please have my bottle back now, I think you been nipping enough now.
God Bless,
Sharon
Well you almost do the same thing Sharon
You put your fresh (or frozen peaches in a pot... add just a tad bit of water.. your seasoning and what not (You guessed it I eyeball it and change things often LOL)... add a little cinnamon.. JUST a LITTLE wee bit... let it boil for a few minutes.. as you would do blackberries ... taste make sure it's sweet and thicken with a little corn starch and water... then do the same thing as you do with the apple pies
I use crisco to fry in.. in my OLD cast iron Kentucky style skillet (I think my mom said it was her great grandmas.. Perfectly seasoned
LOL did you see that beached whale in my avatar??? LOL Did it make you smile? Ifin it did then it worked... a smile a day makes my gray go away!!!
Thanks everyone ! So you dont have to really deep fry it then right ??? (like in reg deep frying) ? wgoat5.. I dont see any gray !!
Fiddle .. oh girl I have grey LOL
But I try to smile and make it al go away..
and NO you don't deep fry it.. just fry in about a 1/2 inch of oil make sure it (the oil) is fairly hot.. you want it to sizzle when you lay the pies in... BUt not tooo hot or the middle won't get hot and your biscuit will get burnt
Thanks Christi .. Then I think you must smile a lot !
You ladies are the greatest!! My husband has been looking for this recipe for the longest!! And back on subject: Hopefully, I'll get to vote this tiome around!! Good Luck, Ladies
Oh I forgot.. dont forget butter!!! Dot everything with butter before closing the pastry (or biscuits LOL) Awww fiddle thank ya but it was just REALLY sunny and bright (hence the squint and the DRINK that someone made me drink on the beach LOL)
Thanks for the luck and you are very welcome doitallmom

Yummy looking pie you baked there.. what time do we eat? Yes Christy, I can pick you up on my way..
Come on over girls the more the merrier I'll put on a pot of coffee, or pull out something a little stronger for some of you (you know who you are ). Course it may hit 100 degrees today so we may have to make it iced coffee and take a dip in the pool to cool off!!
LMAO You aren't talkin about me are you Lori? LMAO
Ok.. well I'll come IF.. you make a apple pie... cherry's not for me lol.. I love marshino cherries but not the real thing LOL (YOu know the kind not dyed in syrup LOL)
Oh what the hey.. I'll come anyways and drink some coffee
Christi, I am going to get Edna 2 foot piping bag, and pipe you up one side and then down the other, with crusting BC. You do not look like beached whale! Thanks for the info on making the peach fried pies 
Lori, your pie looks great and so yummyyyyyy O.K. every coffee and pie at Lori's, or coffee that might have a little kick to it & pie.
God Bless,
Sharon
I will be up to my nose in cakes this week.. but I will stop by as often as I can so I can get my fill of smack talk
Oh where oh where did our Edna go.. Oh where oh where could she be...
Hmmph... I think we have TDers falling off the face of the earth... Dolitte, Edna... Where did everbody go? Back to lurking I suppose
Oh well.. I tried to get them to conform to our ways laura.. to no avail
O.K. Ladies...sad to say I will be gone for a while I will be leaving sometime this afternoon.
My son needs my help in a very bad way. As some of you may know, his wife left (to live the party life 
), he is trying to work and take care of a 3yr. old & a 18 month old.
She was to come and stay with the kids during the day so he could work....but last week, she show up very late and he couldn't get to work. The next day the same thing, again today he missed.
He has been wrote up at work because of this, and today they told him one more time and he will lose his job. So I am going to Ohio to help him out for a while and see if we can find a babysitter or a daycare that he can afford. So I will not be on CC for a while (he does not have internet).
I ask that you all pray for my son & my grandbabies, Please!. Some of you also know I have been down some very very bumping roads this passed year.....so could you all say a little prayer for me to stay strong and hang in there
I did not mean to get so personal, I just wanted to let you all know what was going on, why you wouldn't see me around for a while, maybe even to vent a little bit. Wish us a safe trip, Christi, I think but not sure I may be going close to or close by your neck of the woods. We will be going through Lexington, Florence & Covington KY. pass Cinny to Mason, Ohio. I know I will close to CC member "Combo".
Well guess I have went on long enough....you all will be missed so much by me, I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. Don't forget me I am so mad, hurt, (shocked & puzzled, that this has has happen) heart broken and worry sick for my son & grandbabies.
Now Ladies, get in those kitchens and start those TD cakes!!!!!
God Bless & Hugs to you all!
Sharon
