Fried Dried Peach Pies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (11 ounce) package dried peaches
water
1/2 cup sugar
1 (9 1/2 ounce) carton ready-to-bake biscuits
lard (that is what Mama used,,I use Crisco and I think you could probably use oil, although I haven't trie)

Preparation

Place peaches with water to cover in saucepan; simmer for 30 minutes or until soft. Drain off excess liquid; discard. Mash peaches with potato masher; add sugar, cool thoroughly.
Roll out biscuits on lightly floured board to make thin circles about 6 inches in diameter. Place portion of peach mixture on one half of each circle; fold over other half, seal edge tightly with a fork. Brown on each side in about 1/4 inch hot lard in a heavy skillet.
