Fried Apple Pies

[Muley Gil]

Remember Mom and Granny placing cut apples on a table outside to let them dry... key word here is "Dried" apple fried pies.. not fresh cut!

Now THERE is an Honest to God fried pie!!!

The only thing better than one of them is two of them. Larry

Didn't know what you all were talking about, until it was described by Muley Gil. We call them turnovers in the Northeast. My Spanish work friends called them something else I can't remember now.

Man oh man I haven't thought about that little piece of heaven in years, now I am hungry for a dozen or so! My mom and grandmother used to make apple, peach, apricot and cherry from trees on the farm, delicious. Great memories.

My grandmother grew up during the depression and she was the master of taking nothing and making something out of it . Any fruit was possible fried pie ingredient and I loved them ( still do ) but no one can match grandmas .Man I sure miss her and Granddad .They have been gone lets see 27 years but it seems like a lot longer .Thanks for staring this thread lots of good memories.

Rusty, come on up to Johnstown, Ohio. Troyer's Market carries fry pies from an Amish bakery. When not sold out they carry about 15 to 20 flavors.

Then if you get on into Amish country, there are fry pies for sale everywhere!

I owe about 30 pounds of the man I am to fry pies!

These are sold in a market 5 miles from me.

I'm going to have to stop going there.

My wife's favorite flavor is Blueberry. Mine is Black Raspberry with cream cheese! A $2.00 trip to heaven!

One of my friends cant get enough Raisin! Outside Amish country they are hard to find.

If they are in anyway reminiscent of mom's mincemeat pies, then a drive to Licking county may well be in order.

My Mother made apple, peach and apricot.
All made with dried fruit.

Applebutter makes a great filling too!

Food of the gods! Never knew they were a regional food,very common in my neck of the woods.

Its been awhile, think ill swing by a Whataburger's on the way home, and get a few. Yummmmmmmmmmmmm.....

 

[the ringo kid]

Forget Whattaburger. Put some real South in your mouth.
Here in Southwestern Virginia, we favor peach.

Sounds like another """BBQ War""" has been declared-only this time its War between the pies.v It's APPLE-or do without.

Empenadas maybe???

 

[Rustyt1953]

Up here, turnovers are baked. They are also the bane of Bearcat football.

McDonald's used to fry their apple pies. I haven't been for a while tho.

 

[arjay]

Googled up a recipe and spent most of the day trying to make some.The last three were gooood!
I'd never heard of these before this thread lol

I did some surfing and found this about 25 minutes from me. I'll let ya know:

Yep I remember my Mother making them all the time. This time of the year especially when the apples are the best. I miss my Mom and her fried apple pies. Dad and I would eat them while they were still warm with a glass of cold milk. I'd have to force myself to stop after a few and then save some for later.

Empenadas maybe???

BINGO! Usually they have meat, but the same idea.
