Recipe for Fried apple pies

This week I tried something new. I think it turned out pretty well so here is the recipe;

3lb. bag of granny smith apples

1 cup of sugar

1 stick of butter

1 tablespoon cinnamon

1 tsp. cloves

1 tsp. nutmeg

juice of one lemon

Egg roll wrappers

Cooking oil

Dice the apples and place in pot with next 6 ingredients. Allow to cook down until apples are soft . If there seems to be to much liquid for pie filling add a little flour to thicken it up. Once thickened cool completely. In a pot heat oil until 350 degrees. Take egg roll wrappers and place 2 tbs. of apple mixture in center. Pull corners of wrapper to center of the filling. For last corner dampen the edge with water and place it over the other 3 corners. It will look like a little pocket. Place in oil for about 2-3 minutes turning once. Place on a plate lined with a paper towel and then toss in Cinnamon Sugar mixture(1 cup sugar to 1 tbs. cinnamon). Best served same day.Do not store in a container, they will get soggy.
