Instructions to make Fried Apple Pies:
  1. Stir together flour and sugar. Cut shortening into flour and sugar with fork or pastry blender until crumbly.
  2. Add buttermilk, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Shape dough into disk and plastic wrap. Chill 12-24 hours.
  3. Bring apples and enough water to cover ( about 3 1/2 cups ) to a boil in a large sauce pan over medium high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer stirring occasionally, for 1 hour.
  4. Remove from heat and cover. Let stand for 1 hour.

  14. Drain on paper towels on a baking sheet. Sprinkle hot pies fresh out of oil on both sides with cinnamon sugar.
