Apple Turnovers Using Phyllo Dough Recipes

APPLE TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Combine the lemon and 4 cups water in a large bowl. Place the sliced apples in the water to keep them from browning.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain water from apples, and place them into the hot skillet. Cook and stir for about 2 minutes. Add brown sugar, and cinnamon, and cook, stirring, for 2 more minutes. Stir together cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water. Pour into the skillet, and mix well. Cook for another minute, or until sauce has thickened. Remove from heat to cool slightly.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Unfold puff pastry sheets, and repair any cracks by pressing them back together. Trim each sheet into a square. Then cut each larger square into 4 smaller squares. Spoon apples onto the center of each squares. Fold over from corner to corner into a triangle shape, and press edges together to seal. Place turnovers on a baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between them.
• Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until turnovers are puffed and lightly browned. Cool completely before glazing.
• To make the glaze, mix together the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla in a small bowl. Adjust the thickness by adding more sugar or milk if necessary. Drizzle glaze over the cooled turnovers.

Fold remaining third over the middle, forming a 6x4-in. rectangle. Roll dough into a 12x6-in. rectangle., Repeat steps of butter layering and dough folding, ending with a 6x4-in. rectangle.

EASY APPLE TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Add all apple filing ingredients to a large skillet. Mix well, then place on stove and cook over medium, high heat. Simmer until soft and thick, about 5-10 minutes. Allow to cook
• Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface. Spray with cooking spray, then fold in half horizontally. Fold again horizontally to form a long rectangle. Lightly mist with cooking spray.
• Place 3 tbsp of apple filling on the far left end of the dough. Fold dough over in a triangle form, like how you would fold a flag (see blog instructions). Keep folding the triangle (downwards, sideways, upwards, sideways, repeat) until all dough is used up. Tuck leftover edges under the triangle. Repeat with remaining phyllo dough.
• Back at 375F degrees for 10 minutes. Filp and bake another 5 minutes. Keep an eye on them, as all oven heats differ slightly.
• Optional--use a sifter to dust powdered sugar over turnovers for a pretty presentation (doesn't increase points).

• Lay a sheet of phyllo onto a large cutting board and brush the dough with oil. Top with a second sheet and brush with oil. Sprinkle half the crushed cookies on top. Add another sheet of phyllo and brush with oil. Cut the phyllo into 4 long pieces. Put a small mound of the apple mixture about 1-inch from the bottom of 1 section and fold the phyllo over the mixture into a triangle-shaped pocket. Continue to fold to maintain the triangle shape so a turnover is formed. Repeat with the other 3 sections. Repeat the whole process again with 3 more sheets of phyllo so that you wind up with 8 turnovers. Be sure to reserve a little oil to brush the top of each turnover.
• Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray, place the turnovers on the sheet, brush the tops with the remaining oil and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until nicely browned. Serve warm.
