2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
Dash salt
1 tbsp. shortening
2/3 c. milk

Stir together above ingredients. When mixture is a firm ball of dough, put on floured board and knead down several times. Then using floured rolling pin, pinch off pieces and roll to 1/8 inch thickness and cut in circles with saucer as marker.

Place 2 tablespoons of cooked dried apples or other fruit on half the circle, season well with sugar and nutmeg. Then fold over half of dough and press edges together with tines of a fork, dipped in ice cold water. The pies may be finished by deep frying, pan frying, or brushed with butter or shortening and baked in a hot oven.
