Cook The Book: Coca-Cola Fried Pies

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup Coca-Cola, flat
• 1/2 pound dried apples
• 1 cup sugar
• 4 cups water
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil

1. Mix flour, salt, and Coke together, forming a soft dough. Roll out very thin. Using a saucer as a guide, cut rounds. Refrigerate.
2. Combine dried apples, sugar, and water in a large pot. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 20 minutes or until water is absorbed. Add cinnamon and set aside.
3. Put a scoop of filling on the bottom lip of each crust and fold over. With a fork, crimp the edges of each pie. In a heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. Fry in batches until browned, 3-4 minutes per side. Lift from the skillet with tongs and blot on paper towels.
