Looking for naturally sweet bite that brightens up the day? Let’s make some apple turnovers and open the door for even more!
As I lately have some time, I had been looking on the web the other day. In search of new, exciting tips, inspirational recipes that We have never tried before, to amaze my loved ones with. Looking for a long time but couldn’t come across lots of interesting stuff. Right before I wanted to give up on it, I found this scrumptious and easy treat simply by chance. It seemed so mouth-watering on its snapshot, it required fast action.
It absolutely was easy to imagine the way it’s created, how it tastes and just how much my husband might enjoy it. Mind you, it is extremely easy to keep happy the guy in terms of puddings. Anyway, I visited the page: Suncakemom and followed the step-by-step instuctions that had been accompanied by superb pics of the operation. It just makes life less difficult. I can imagine that it’s a bit of a effort to shoot photographs in the midst of cooking in the kitchen as you typically have gross hands therefore i highly appreciate the time and energy she devote to build this post and recipe easily followed.
That being said I am empowered to present my own, personal dishes similarly. Appreciate your the thought.
I had been tweaking the main recipe create it for the taste of my family. I’ve got to mention it absolutely was an awesome success. They enjoyed the flavor, the thickness and enjoyed having a treat such as this in the midst of a hectic workweek. They basically asked for more, many more. Hence the next occasion I’m not going to make the same miscalculation. I am going to twin the quantity to keep them pleased.
This Apple Turnover Pie Crust was first published on Suncakemom.
Filling
Place the peeled and grated apples into a mixing bowl.
The time has already come to use any optional sweetener of choice. Try to keep it low as apples are generally sweet enough and don’t really require extra sweeteners. Sprinkle the ground cinnamon on top and mix it well together.
While adding about a quarter cup of water pour the filling int a saucepan to cook. Cook apple in medium heat, stir occasionally for about 5 – 10 minutes. Replace the amount of water that evaporates if a more jucy filling is desired otherwise not necessary.
Meanwhile the apple is cooking mix a spoonful of cornstarch, teaspoon of optional vanilla extract and some water in a bowl. When added to the apple sauce this will thicken it somewhat so if we want a denser filling add more cornstarch. Optionally we can skip this step entirely.
Pour the liquid into the cooked apple mixture then stir vigorously.
Take it off the heat when it starts to boil and set aside the saucepan with the filling whilst we’re making the dough. The cooler the filling gets the better as handling buttery pastry with hot filling isn’t one of the easiest task in the kitchen.
Apple turnover dough
Measure flour, butter, baking powder and pour it into a mixing bowl with and egg. (soften or even melt the butter a bit as it will be hard to knead it otherwise)
Add the water. Water is crucial ingredient that activates gluten in the flour that holds together the whole pie from falling apart into a shapeless brown mass in the hot oil pan. Knead it well together by hand until the dough comes together and not sticking to the hands or the side of the bowl.
Divide it into nine pieces of the same size.
Make 9 little balls out of them.
Assembly
Sprinkle some flour on the board and put one ball in the middle.
Flatten it with a rolling pin then put some filling on one side of the dough.
Fold it in half. A help of a spatula may be needed to pick up the flattened dough nicely.
Press the dough together by hand or with a fork. Make sure there aren’t any gaps where the filling could escape. Remove the excess dough if necessary and make new balls from them. Repeat until the dough runs out.
Pour oil into a frying pan and heat it in medium to high heat. Drop a tiny piece of dough into the oil. If it starts sizzling, we can put the first two apple turnovers into the oil to fry. In about 1 -3 minutes (maybe more, depending on the cooktop turn it round to fry the other side too.
