How to Make Apple Turnover For One
- Whisk together 1/2 cup flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
- Cut in 2 tablespoons of shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add 2-3 tablespoons of ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing lightly with a fork until the dough just comes together.
- Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 15 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 7-inch circle.
- Arrange thinly sliced apples from 1 medium apple on one half of the circle.
- Sprinkle evenly with 1 tablespoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon.
- Fold the dough over the filling, crimping the edges to seal. You can use your fingers or a fork.
- Brush the top with 1 tablespoon of milk or cream.
- Prick the top several times with a fork to allow steam to escape.
- Place the turnover on a greased baking sheet.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- While the turnover is still warm, whisk together 1 tablespoon powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon milk (or lemon juice) until smooth.
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm apple turnover and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
