EASY APPLE TURNOVERS RECIPE

Steps:

• To make these apple turnovers I'm using my homemade pie crust.
• First, remove the pastry dough out of the fridge. it's important to let it sit at room temperature before rolling into it. This will make the rolling process a lot easier.
• Then, peel, core, and dice the apples and set them aside.
• Next, on a medium saucepan melt over medium heat 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter.
• Add the apples, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon fresh nutmeg, and a pinch of salt, and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes or until the apples are soft and caramelized. Remove from the stove and set aside to cool.
• Now for the rolling part:
• On a flat, dry surface sprinkle some flour and place the dough. This will prevent the dough from sticking. Then, with gentle smooth strokes roll out the dough. Always start from the center of the dough then work your way out into all directions turning the dough as you go.
• Turn and roll the dough and cut into circles using a cookie cutter, a cup, or glass. Spoon out some of the cooled apple mixture (about 1 tablespoon) depending on the size of your circle. You can place it in the center of the circle and place another circle on top. Then, place them on a baking sheet.
• Next, using a fork to seal the edges of the dough. Also, using a knife or a fork cut a few small slits in the top of each turnover. This not only will give a nice touch to the turnover, but it will prevent the filling from coming out, spilling, and burning. You can also place them in the refrigerator uncovered for 15 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C).
• Next, in a small mixing bowl whisk 1 egg with 1-2 teaspoons of water and brush over the turnovers. This will lead to a shiny golden brown pastry.
• Bake them for 20-30 minutes or until they are puffed and golden.
• Drizzle a very simple homemade glaze over the turnovers and Enjoy! To make the glaze you'll need powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream.

EASY APPLE TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Pulse the applies, 1/2 cup of the sugar, the lemon juice, and salt in a food processor until the apples are coarsely chopped, about 5 pulses. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then drain, reserving any accumulated juice.
• Chef note: The 2nd time I made this, I mixed a tablespoon of flour with the sugar before I tossed the apples in it. I also mixed the applesauce right in with the apples. I think the flour helped keep it from being quite so runny--it was more like pie filling when it was cooked.
• Unfold one sheet of puff pastry on lightly floured counter and roll into a 10-inch square. Cut into 4 5-inch squares. Mound 1 tablespoon applesauce and 1 tablespoon of the apple mixture in the center of each square.
• Brush the edges of each square with juice drained off the apples and fold into triangles. Crump the edges together using a fork to seal. Lay the turnovers on a wire rack and freeze for 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining sheet of pastry and remaining applesauce and apple filling.
• Toss the remaining 1/4 cup sugar with the cinnamon. Remove the rack from the freezer, brush the turnovers with the reserved apple juice, then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar.
• Lay the turnovers on two parchment-lined baking sheets and bake until well browned, 20 to 26 minutes, rotating and switching the baking sheets halfway through baking. Transfer the turnovers to a wire rack and let cool slightly before serving.
