Ingredients

Servings

• 4 medium Apples
• ¹⁄₂ cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoon Cold water
• 1 large Egg
• ¹⁄₂ cup Powdered sugar
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Milk

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Peel, core, and chop the apples into small pieces.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped apples, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice. Mix well.
4. In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt.
5. Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
6. Add the cold water to the flour mixture and stir until the dough comes together.
7. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick.
8. Cut the dough into 8 squares.
9. Spoon the apple mixture onto the center of each square.
10. Fold the dough over the filling to form a triangle and press the edges to seal.
11. Place the turnovers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
12. In a small bowl, beat the egg with a tablespoon of water. Brush the tops of the turnovers with the egg wash.
13. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the turnovers are golden brown.
14. In a separate bowl, mix the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk to make a glaze.
15. Drizzle the glaze over the warm turnovers.
16. Serve and enjoy!
