INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oil for frying. In a sauce pan, melt the butter. Add the
apples and saute for 2 minutes. Stir in the cinnamon, nutmeg, 1/4 cup
sugar, and brown sugar. Continue sauteing for 1 minute, stirring
constantly to dissolve the sugar. Add the water and lemon juice.
Bring the liquid up to a boil. Add cornstarch dissolved in 1
Tablespoon of water. Whisk the vanilla and slurry into the liquid.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15 - 20 minutes, or until the
apples are soft. Remove from heat and cool completely. In a mixing
bowl, sift the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder, together.
Gradually add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, working it to make
a thick dough. Break the dough into 12 equal portions. On a lightly
floured surface, roll the dough pieces into thin rounds, about 5
inches in diameter. Put 1/4 cup of the mixture in the center of each
round, fold over and crimp the edges with a fork. Fry the pies, two
to three at a time, in the hot oil, until golden brown. Remove from
the oil and drain on paper towels. Powder the pies with the powdered
sugar. May serve with vanilla ice cream. ... Sincerely yours Gigi
