Fried Cinnamon Apple Hand Pies
- 2 apples large, peeled and diced very small, I prefer Honeycrisp, but use what you like
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon flour
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- vegetable oil
- 24 wonton wrappers round
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Place the diced apples in a medium saucepan. In a small bowl, combine the 3 Tablespoons sugar, flour, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon and nutmeg. Sprinkle over the apples and toss with a spoon.
- Heat the apples over medium heat until just starting to soften but still with a bite, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to slightly cool.
- Meanwhile, pour a 1/2-inch layer of vegetable oil into a frying pan. Heat over medium heat until hot and ready for frying. A good test is to sprinkle water into the pan with your hand. If it sizzles right away, it's ready.
- While the oil is heating up to the right temperature, prepare the pies. Working in batches, place just under a Tablespoon of the apple pie filling into the center of each wonton. Brush water around the edges of the wonton and fold over to seal.
- Pinch the seams to create the fluted edges.
- Fry in the pan for about 10-15 seconds on each side. Drain on a paper towel lined plate.
- Combine the remaining 2 Tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the pies, serve immediately.
