Fried Lemon Pies

By daiseyduck

These pies were so good. Better than the ones I remember from Tastykake. And it only took minutes to make once the pie crust was thawed. The crust was so light and flaky and the filling…oh the filling!

Ingredients

• Comstock Original Lemon Pie Filling
• 2 9 inch pie crusts (I used the Pillsbury refrigerated pie crusts)
• Oil for frying
• Confectioner's sugar for dusting

Preparation

Step 1

Place 1 inch of oil in a heavy pan, heat over medium heat until hot (about 350 degrees if using a thermometer.)

On lightly floured surface, roll out pie crust, making sure any cracks are sealed. Cut into sixths. Place 2 tablespoons of filling on 3 of your pie crust sections. Place the the remaining pie crusts on top of the filled sections and seal well with a fork. Carefully place pies in hot oil using a slotted spoon. Fry for one minute then turn over for another 30-45 seconds. Remove from oil to drain on racks or a paper towel covered plate. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before eating. Dust with sugar and enjoy.
