Fried Apple Pies

Recently I got some Cortland apples from an orchard in Pennsylvania. I remembered that my mother and grandmother used to dry slices of apples and later make fried pies with them. I dried most of the apples and yesterday decided it was a great day to make fried pies. I topped them with hard sauce and they turned out great. The pastry was really flaky and the filling was just the right tartness so that the hard sauce was a perfect match. Below are a few images.
