Instructions
- Roll out the pie crust and cut out circles using a water glass. The circles will be around 2-3 inches wide. Gather together the crust and roll out again to the original thickness of the pie crust ( you can use that water glass! That's what I did!) and cut out some more circles. Repeat until you have as many circles as desired!
- You have two options to make these : you can use one circle and pinch them into a moon like a perogy OR you can use two circles and make them into a round ravioli shape. The ones I made in the photos use two circles.
- Place one circle down and place 1 heaping tbsp of cherry pie filling into the center. Place another crust circle on top and using the tines of a fork, press the edges together all the way around. Gently turn over and repeat, sealing the pies edges on both sides with the fork. ( This method works beautifully, I had no leaks!)
- Place 1-2 inches of oil in a cast iron pan and place on the fire over coals, not direct flames. Heat the oil until it sizzles instantly when water droplets are dropped into it.
- Place 1-2 pies into the pan and cook until the first side is well browned. Take your tongs and turn each of them over.
- Once the other side has been browned, remove and drain on paper towels.
- If wanted, dredge the pies through white sugar after they have drained on the paper towels.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- You can keep your oil in a container and use it again to fry food in as long as it didn't get too dirty!
- Calories in this recipe have been calculated without the oil that the pies absorb as this isn't possible to calculate.
