Fried Fruit Pies
Apricot filled, fried pastry. 2 (6 ounce) packages dried apricots
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (15 ounce) package refrigerated pie crust
1/2 cup vegetable oil
confectioners' sugar

Directions:
1 Place apricots in a saucepan, and add water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce
heat to low; simmer for 30 minutes, or until tender. Drain, reserving 5
tablespoons liquid.
2 Place apricots and reserved liquid in a food processor container fitted with
steel blade. Process until smooth. Add sugar, butter or margarine, and
cinnamon, process until blended.
3 Roll 1 crust on lightly floured surface to a 15 inch circle. Cut into six 4 inch
squares. Place 1 tablespoon apricot mixture in the center of each square. Fold
each square in half to form a triangle. Press fork dipped in flour onto edges to
seal, and poke tops to permit steam to escape. Repeat with remaining crust and
apricot mixture.
4 Heat oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Cook triangles, a few at a
time, 2 to 3 minutes on each side; cook until golden brown. Drain on paper
towels. Sprinkle with confectioners sugar.
