Easy Fried Pies

Christian loves the pies and McDonald's. I wounder how these will compare.
Found on Southern plate.


Filling
■6-7 ounces dried fruit (I used peaches, can use apples, apricots, or other dried fruit)
■1 cup sugar
■2 cups water
■1/4 cup butter or margarine
■1 T lemon juice (optional, but I use it)
■1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional, but I use it) - if using apples, I add 1/4 tsp Allspice too
■10 - 15 flaky layers biscuits
Place dried fruit in a pot and add water. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to simmer until fruit is tender. Add other ingredients and mash together with a potato masher or fork. Set aside while dough is prepared.

Roll each biscuit out on a floured surface into a five or six inch circle. Place two tablespoons of filling in each. Wet the edges and fold over, crimping with a fork.

Cook in oil which has been heated on medium heat, until browned on both sides, turning as needed. Remove to paper towel lined plate.
