Time 1h10m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter
5 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Two 16-ounce cans refrigerated flaky jumbo biscuits (8 biscuits per can)
4 cups vegetable oil, for frying
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, for sprinkling onto finished pies
1 cup Cinnamon-Caramel Sauce, recipe follows, or store-bought caramel sauce
1 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup half-and-half
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) salted butter
2 pinches kosher salt
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, butter and 1 tablespoon water. Cook, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is bubbling. Add the apples, vanilla, salt, cinnamon and lemon juice. Mix together the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Add the cornstarch mixture to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender, about 5 minutes. Pour into a heatproof bowl and let cool completely. You can make this ahead of time and chill in the fridge a day or so in advance if needed.
  • To make the pies, roll each biscuit into about a 5-inch circle that is about 1/8 inch thick. Spoon 2 generous tablespoons of the apple filling on each round of dough, just off center. Use your finger and run a little water around the edges to help them seal completely. Fold one half of each circle over onto the other half and seal in the apple filling, forcing out any air that you can. Press the edges together and crimp with a fork. Continue until they're all assembled.
  • Heat the oil in a high-sided skillet over medium heat until it reaches 350 degrees F. Fry the pies 2 or 3 at a time for about 5 minutes, carefully turning them halfway through. Remove them to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.
  • When all the pies are fried, sift the confectioners' sugar over top. Serve with Cinnamon-Caramel Sauce or store-bought caramel sauce.
  • Mix the brown sugar, half-and-half, butter and a pinch of salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, whisking gently, until it thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the vanilla, cinnamon and a second pinch of salt and cook another minute to thicken further. Turn off the heat and allow to cool to room temperature before serving. Chill if not using immediately.

FIRESIDE PIES

I thought I would post this recipe for a group that I joined on "Just a Pinch" called "Camping Recipes and Ways you Can Cook Them". This is Camp Debelak (my parents camp) in Cooks Forest, PA and is very woodsy and beautiful there. The whole family enjoys their time camping. Especially the grandkids love to spend time with Papa...

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 beautiful hot fire
1 loaf of bread
1 jar(s) strawberry jam or any flavor you like
1 jar(s) blueberry jam
1 pkg sliced pepperoni's
1 pkg sliced cheese
1 stick butter
1 hobo cast-iron pie iron
what about ham & swiss fireside pie; sounds like a good one too.

Steps:

  • 1. Need one good camp fire.
  • 2. For as many as you would like to serve, butter bread on one side. Then, begin filling your breads. For fruit pies use your jellies and for your pizza pies use your pepperoni and cheese. You can be creative and make any sandwich you want.
  • 3. These are the sammies that my Dad makes for the adults and kids at camp.
  • 4. He loves making them for everyone and helping make smores too.
  • 5. (The Hobo cast-iron pie iron can be bought online at Cabela's if you cannot find it in a hardware store.)

Tips:

  • To ensure a crispy crust, use a combination of all-purpose and bread flour. The higher protein content in bread flour will help create a strong gluten structure, resulting in a flaky and crispy crust.
  • For the best flavor, use high-quality, fresh ingredients. The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the taste of your pies.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from becoming too sticky and difficult to work with.
  • Use a sharp knife or pastry cutter to cut the dough. This will help create clean edges and prevent the dough from tearing.
  • Brush the edges of the dough with water before sealing the pies. This will help create a tight seal and prevent the pies from leaking.
  • Bake the pies in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the crust cooks evenly.
  • Let the pies cool slightly before serving. This will help prevent the filling from spilling out.

Conclusion:

Fireside pies are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there's sure to be a fireside pie that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give fireside pies a try. You won't be disappointed!
