Ingredients
  

  • 2 pie crusts unfrozen, still cold
  • 2 cups peaches (peeled, sliced and cubed)
  • 1/2 cup peaches (peeled and mashed)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 2 cups canola oil (enough to fill the deep pan/pot you are using 1″ deep with oil)
  • 1 cup cup powdered sugar sprinkling

Instructions
 

  • Place a baking rack on a sheet pan and set aside.
  • Add the peaches, sugar, and cornstarch to a medium pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Stir until thickened. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
  • Unroll the pie crusts onto a lightly floured surface and cut out 8 rounds from each crust using a 3 1/2 inch cookie cutter. (You can cut 9 pie dough circles out of each crust if you are a cookie cutter master.)
    .
  • Spoon two teaspoons of the completely cooled sweet peach mixture in the center of each round.5. Moisten the edge of the dough with water. Fold the dough over creating a half circle. Press to seal being sure to remove any holes along the edges. Extra Charm! Use a fork along the edge for a vintage seal, or pinch the dough to add a ruffled pie shop edge.
  • Place the pies on a cutting board or cookie sheet and cool in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Add the extra sugar to a small bowl or plate. Set aside.
  • Fill a large skillet with one inch of oil and heat to 350°F.
  • If you don’t have an oil thermometer on hand, drop a small piece of leftover dough into the hot oil. It is ready when it floats, sizzles, and turns golden brown quickly.
  • Fry the pies in small batches of three or four one minute on each side. They will turn a beautiful golden brown.
  • Remove the pies from the oil and place each in a single layer on the prepared lined pan.
  • Give each Little Fried Peach Pie a good roll in the sugar!
  • They are ready to share! Serve them on a platter covered in sugar or bag them up for a picnic.

Notes

SPARKLE TIP: ONCE THE PIES ARE SEALED, YOU CAN STORE THEM IN A SEALED BAG FOR ONE MONTH IN THE FREEZER BEFORE FRYING. HOW ABOUT THAT?! I DO RECOMMEND THAWING BEFORE FRYING.
