Steps

1 hour

1

Defrost as many frozen biscuits as you need, each one = 1 pie.
2

Flour each biscuit and then roll flat to about 1/4” thick with a rolling pin.
3

If needed mark the center fold and add your 2 tbsp of filling south of the fold line.
4

Wet the edges with water and fold the dough over to make a half moon shape. Press down with your fingers and then use the pizza cutter to trim and seal the edges.
5

Fry in vegetable oil at 350 until golden brown, about 2-4 minutes per side.
6

Remove pies from oil and set to drain on paper towels or elevated screen. Cover with powdered sugar and enjoy.

This work with any canned pie filling, pudding, jelly, preserves, to make a sweet dessert or complete the same steps and fill with your choice of filling. I have done chicken fajita filling, pot roast, chili (Texas style) eggs and sausage, cheeseburger patty chunks, and literally anything that goes well with biscuits/biscuit dough. I prefer my homemade apple butter.
