Steps:

• In a large bowl, sift together flour and salt.
• Cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles large crumbs.
• Add water and stir until a dough begins to form.
• Turn dough out onto a work surface and begin kneading until you have a soft, uniform ball of dough. (dough will be very crumbly at first)
• Cut dough into 8 equal size pieces and roll into a ball.
• Place dough balls on a baking sheet and press them into a disc. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes or until ready to use.
• In a large saucepan, add peaches, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Toss to coat peaches in sugar.
• Bring to a simmer over medium heat until peaches are tender enough to mash.
• Mash the peaches (I like to mash some and then cut the rest into small chunks)
• Allow the peaches to continue simmering until thickened and the juices have dissolved.
• Stir in butter and lemon juice.
• Stir in cornstarch if needed.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, stir together powdered sugar and milk until silky. (may need to add more milk)
• Stir in a pinch of salt and vanilla extract. Set aside until ready to use.
• To assemble the pies, roll a dough ball out to about 5-6 inches wide.
• Place 2 tablespoons of peach filling in the center.
• Fold the dough over the peach filling and press the edges of the dough together firmly.
• Use a pizza cutter to trim the edges to make them neater.
• Crimp the edges with a fork to further seal the pie. Repeat these steps with the rest of the pies.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or deep skillet to 350 F.
• Once the oil is hot, carefully place 2-3 pies in the oil and fry until lightly golden, about 3-4 minutes. (flip midway if needed)
• Place fried pies on a cooling rack.
• When the pies are done frying, brush one side with the glaze. Then, once the glaze has hardened, brush them once again.
• Serve once the final glaze has hardened.

PEACH FRIED PIES RECIPE

Steps:

• Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Make a small, shallow X in the bottom of each peach, just to break the skin. Place each peach in the boiling water for 10 seconds; immediately plunge into a bowl of ice water. Peel the skin with a paring knife. Remove the pits, and cut the peaches into slices.

Transfer to a bowl, and chill until ready to use.
• Sprinkle a work surface with flour. Generously flour both sides of biscuits, and roll each into a 5 1/2-inch circle (about 1/8 inch thick). Place a heaping tablespoon of the chilled filling in the center of each dough circle, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. Do not overfill. Using a brush or your finger, dampen the edge of the circle with water. Carefully fold the dough in half, pressing the edges together to make a half-moon shape. Press edges with a fork to seal.
• Melt shortening in a Dutch oven over medium; heat to 325°F. Fry pies, in batches, until deep golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes on each side, turning as necessary to ensure even browning. Remove and drain on paper towels; if desired, dust with powdered sugar.
