Baked (Or Fried) Apple Pies

Cook apples until done or tender.

Mash with a potato masher, add sugar and mix well.

Continue to cook until no longer soupy, stirring often.

Make a nice rich pastry by mixing flour, Crisco and milk.

Roll out dough into balls half the size of a biscuit. On a floured piece of wax paper, roll each ball into a thin circle.

Dip a teaspoon into water and moisten edges of circle to make them stick together.

Place a heaping tablespoon of fruit on one half of the circle of dough.

Fold the other half of circle over the fruit and seal with a fork dipped in flour.

Place the pie on a well-greased bread pan.

Cook in a 400° oven until brown on bottom.

Brush a teaspoon of corn oil on each pie and turn over and brown on the other side.

When done, brush the tops with melted margarine or corn oil.
