If you don't want to make this many pies at one time, you may shape into balls and roll each in a circle onto a square of waxed paper. Stack them with a section of wax paper between each circle and then freeze in tight container.
As you want to serve up a few fresh hot fried pies, remove as many circles as you like and allow to thaw on its own wax paper.
Put your fruit on 1/2 of the circle and fold over.
Be sure the crust is thawed before attempting to fold or you will break it.
Seal the edges and deep fry in hot oil.
This is important.
Turn only once and drain on paper towels.
