- Okay, y'all, I had shared with y'all in an earlier video
0:04
that the next few videos
0:07
I'm gonna be doing things in the air fryer
0:10
and when I share this recipe with you,
0:12
you're probably gonna say, "Paula, that is BS."
0:17
If you're making fried pies,
0:19
why would you even worry about the calories?
0:22
But I will share this with you.
0:24
I love a fried pie fried in the pan in some vegetable oil.
0:32
I do love 'em that way but you know,
0:37
I just say cut it where you can.
0:42
Certainly not gonna hurt us.
0:44
So I am gonna make a fried pie
0:46
like my granny used to teach me how, my granny Paul
0:50
but actually, Grandma Paul
0:54
fell in love with the canned biscuits
0:57
when they arrived on the scene
1:00
and I've told y'all this story before.
1:02
I was at her house one day and she went in the refrigerator
1:06
and got a can of biscuits out and I can see her right now.
1:09
She, ooh, ow, I can't judge distance anymore, y'all,
1:17
Yeah, I just can't judge distance so I need to be careful.
1:21
But I remember her whacking that can of biscuits
1:25
on the counter and saying, "I was so damn happy
1:28
when they came out with canned biscuits."
1:32
So grandma used canned biscuits to make her fried pies with
1:37
which they were good but over the years,
1:41
as we have more convenience foods coming our way,
1:45
I really like the puff pastry
1:48
and I'm gonna do this before I lose all my fingers, y'all.
1:53
So anyway, I've got my puff pastry
1:56
and I'm gonna put a little flour on it
1:58
and roll it out just a little bit.
2:09
All right, you wanna bring it to the edge.
2:11
You don't wanna waste any dough.
2:16
So let's see what this size will give us.
2:35
It's gonna be a tinier pie than I normally make.
2:39
Now, you can do your fresh fruit.
2:48
I'm using a pie filling for these
2:52
but quite often, I'll do fresh pears or apples
2:58
and just cook 'em on top of the stove for a little while
3:01
with some sugar water and they are delicious.
3:06
All right, let's see.
3:13
And who doesn't like cherry pie filling?
3:15
I think this is gonna be a good size right here
3:18
'cause remember, we're kind of having a diet
3:25
- [Eddie] Especially if you serve it with ice cream.
3:30
- [Theresa] Cherry is my favorite.
3:32
- [Theresa] A lot of people don't like cherry.
3:33
That surprises me. - [Paula] I love cherry.
3:35
Michael and I love Cherry.
3:38
- [Theresa] Are you a cherry fan, Eddie?
3:40
- You know, my favorite, my favorite,
3:44
now see, I'm just dampening that crust
3:46
'cause I do want 'em to stick together.
3:50
I got to make sure that it's sealed well
3:54
and I may have put too many cherries in it
3:56
but I don't think I did.
3:58
I mean, I don't like to be skimpy.
4:00
- [Theresa] How could you ever?
4:01
- Don't like to be skimpy with with my filling.
4:13
Guess who just walked in our house?
4:21
The youngest grandbaby at the Deen household.
4:27
They have just come here
4:28
so Davis is in the living room playing
4:30
and I was telling him all about
4:34
where Eddie and I went this past weekend,
4:38
to Pigeon Forge to visit with the bald eagles.
4:41
So Bubbles had bought him a bald eagle animal
4:46
so I was giving that to him and Brooke has shared with me
4:50
that her favorite thing in the world is fried pies
4:56
so I'm gonna try to get these done so I can have one for her
5:01
before she has to take off.
5:05
Okay, look at here, y'all, look at those beautiful pies
5:09
You'll wanna stick your fork in the flour so it won't stick
5:14
and now I'm gonna brush them with some beaten egg
5:18
and this will make it pretty and shiny
5:22
and it'll help it brown.
5:28
And when I turn 'em over, I'll egg the other side.
5:45
These are kinda hard to work with 'cause I let 'em,
5:49
I let them get a little chilled.
6:00
Now, like I said, when I turn these over to,
6:05
around the other side,
6:07
I will, I'll rub that other side with the egg.
6:15
I want y'all to look at these fried pies.
6:19
They turned out so beautiful.
6:23
Now I'm just gonna sprinkle 'em with a little powdered sugar
6:27
in case those cherries are not sweet enough.
6:31
Now, I just asked Brooke.
6:33
I was trying to get these done quick
6:35
because I want her to have one
6:36
since it's her favorite dessert.
6:40
So I didn't know if she was gonna eat it here
6:42
or take it home but I think she just said she'd eat it here.
6:44
Right, Brooke? - [Brooke] Yes.
6:53
- Yum. - Do you want some?
6:56
Cherry pie. - No, no.
6:57
- He's not old enough to know what's in it yet.
7:00
No, he liked that Tootsie Roll, didn't he?
7:05
I'm enjoy, ooh, that's flour.
7:06
I didn't mean to do that.
7:09
I don't want flour sprinkled.
7:10
I want a little more sugar.
7:14
I'm enjoying watching Brooke eat hers
7:17
but I've got to have a bite too.
7:34
It's delicious, isn't it?
7:37
Well, Brooke told me, she said,
7:41
"it's not like when you fry 'em in shortening"
7:45
but she said "it's very good and it's almost healthy."
7:50
So I love the fact that she appreciated that
7:55
but it is delicious, y'all
7:58
and really easy to do if you're using a pie filling.
8:06
Your family will love you for it.
