Fried Peach Pies.
Fried Peach Pies recipe.
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1 stick cold butter, cut into ½-inch cubes
- about ¾ cup ice water
Filling
- 3 ripe peaches, peeled and diced
- ⅓ cup peach preserves
- Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until it resembles cornmeal.
- Add almost all of the ice water and gently form the dough into a ball. If it is looking too dry, add the remaining ice water.
- Divide dough in half and work with one ball of dough at a time.
- Sprinkle a work surface with flour and roll a ball of dough out until it is just a little thicker than a tortilla. Cut it into 5-inch circles using a bowl that measures 5 inches across the top. Set scraps aside.
- Roll out second piece of dough an cut as many 5 inch circles as will fit.
- Combine all scraps and re-roll to get another circle.
- Put about a tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle of dough.
- Fold circles in half, wetting your fingers with water to seal the edges. Make sure edges are completely sealed and crimp edges with the tines of a fork.
- Heat about 2 to 3 inches of oil in a Dutch oven or deep frying pan. The oil is hot enough when you drop a small piece of dough into it and it immediately sizzles.
- Fry two pies at a time until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
