Fried Pie Crust image

As a little girl, I remember my mother making fried pies for us as a special treat. Although she didn't have a recipe for the filling, I did find her recipe for her pie crust. I think you will enjoy these as much as I did when I was growing up. If only mother was here today to share them with!
