Peach Pocket Pies

My mom and I made these peach pies because we had some peaches that needed to be used. I just used a premade pie crust and used the pocket pie mold to cut out the different shapes. I made stars and hearts, the start ones were fried and the heart ones baked.
The baked ones came out better than the fried ones since the oil got to hot and cooked the outsides too fast and the middle not enough. It was a little tricky to keep the temperature constant in just a standard pot over the stove.

The pie filling was just cut up peaches, sugar,almond extract and quick cooking tapioca that was all combined and allowed to stand for 15 minutes. The peaches had a lot of juice so the tapioca allowed the filling to get to a thicker consistency.
