Cook fruit in water until tender. Drain and mix with
sugar and margarine. Mash well. Refrigerate overnight if
possible. Roll out homemade piecrust dough and cut into
saucer-sized circles.

Spoon fruit onto circles and fold over into crescent
shapes, then close the edges completely with a fork. Fry
until golden brown. Place fried pies on paper towels to
absorb excess oil.

VARIATIONS: For baked pies, place crescents on a
lightly-greased baking sheet in a 400 degree oven until
golden brown.

For apple pies, use dried apples and add apple pie spice
(or nutmeg and cinnamon) and vanilla to taste.

For prune pies, use dry, pitted prunes and add vanilla
to taste.

HOMEMADE PIE CRUST: Place the flour and a dash of salt
in a mixing bowl. Add the shortening and cut it in with
a pastry blender or use your hands, as I do. Add the
water, a teaspoon at a time, kneading until the dough is
smooth.
