Turnovers

I made apple turnovers a few months ago that were amazing.

We bought a couple of cans of Pillsbury Dough Sheet, which, when opened, can be rolled out like a sheet of puff pastry. Kind of.

When I had everything ready for the dough, I peeled, then opened the “can”, and the sheet exploded out of it. It was torn into about a gazillion pieces, but I put it back together the best I was able. I was finally able to make 4 turnovers out of the mess.

Before I started with the dough, however, I had to decide on how I was going to process the apples; the old fashioned way of peeling, coring, and dicing, or quick as a whip all in one peeler, corer, slicer. I chose the latter. It is the red gizmo to the left of the apple. You can see the blue peeler, the black handled corer, and the knife in front of the apple.

It took me about 30 seconds to peel 1/4 of the first apple, so I immediately stopped that nonsense, went and found the all in one, and processed both apples in about 2 minutes. It took a few minutes to dice the apples but that was nothing.

I mixed all of the ingredients, rolled out the dough sheet, patched all of the holes in the dough sheet, beat the egg for the egg wash, places the apple mixture on the sheet, folded the dough, crimped the edges, and badda bing, they were done. 15 minutes, and they were ready to eat.

We’re waiting until tomorrow to try them. We had a big dinner.

Until next time.

Stay safe, stay happy, and stay healthy.

The top right is the last of the 4 original turnovers. The other 6 are the second batch. Less dough per turnover. Ivan says the second batch was much better than the first. Yay.
