surface. Cut into sixteen 2 1/2-inch squares. Combine apples, brown sugar,
cinnamon and egg in a large bowl; toss to mix
Step 2
Preheat oven to 425'F. Place pastry squares on an
ungreased baking sheet. Spoon 1 tablespoon apple mixture onto each square.
Dot each square with 1/4 teaspoon butter.

Fold each pastry over filling to form a triangle; brush
pastry edges with some milk and press to seal.

Pre - Prepared Items for even Faster Serving Times
Prepare the apple mixture as recipe directs 1 day
ahead. Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent browning; refrigerate
in an airtight container. |
Money Savers
Apples that are bruised may not be prime for out of
hand eating, but once peeled and chopped, they are fine for pie fillings
or other pastries. Look for reduced-price fruit in the supermarket
produce section. |
Serving Variation
A number of seasonal fruits, such as peaches, nectarines
or apricots, may be used instead of the apples.
Cook'en Easier
Chop apples in a food processor or grate coarsely with a
hand grater to speed chopping time.
These turnovers taste great with a light glaze. Blend 1 cup confectioners'
sugar with 2 tablespoons milk or water to drizzle over the cooled turnovers. |
