I remember when McDonalds first came out with their apple pies and I loved them as a child. This recipe is kind of reminiscent of those pies! Other fruits would work for filling, too.

How To Make hand-held apple pies
-
1Heat butter in a skillet and let it get slightly brown. Add apples, 3 tablespoons sugar, 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Stir occasionally for about 5 minutes until apples have softened. Add flour and cook for an extra minute. Add lemon juice and remove from heat.

3Combine rest of sugar and cinnamon in shallow bowl. Heat oil in skillet until hot. Place the rolls into hot oil and cook - turn often until golden brown. Remove, dredge in cinnamon-sugar and place on cooling rack. Depending on size of skillet, you may need to cook them in batches.
