I don't know if this is a old fashioned recipe or not, but is very good...I hope you will be willing to give it a try!

Fried Apple Pies

1 package dried apples-8oz
1 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon butter or margarine
1 can flaky biscuits-10oz
vegetable oil--for frying

Combine apples and water in a saucepan, bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes or until tener, cool. Mash slightly if necessary..Stir in the sugar and butter; set mixture aside.

Roll each biscuit into a 5 inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Place about 2 Tablespoons apple mixturre on half of each biscuit circle. To seal pies, dip fingers in water and moisten edges of circles. Fold in half, making sure edges are even. Using a fork dipped in flour, press edges firmly together. Pour oil to a depth of 1/2 inch thick into a heavy skillet. Fry pies in hot oil over medium-high heat on both sides until golden, turning once. Drain well on paper towels.
