Place a heaping T. of cooked fruit into the center of the circle. Fold half the circle over the other half and crimp with a fork to seal the edges of the pie. Placing a small amount of water on the inside edge of the dough will help to seal it shut. Place in hot oil in heavy frying pan. Cook over medium-low heat until dough is brown on both sides.
