How to Make Baked Apple Turnovers

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. In a medium bowl, gently combine the prepared apple pie filling with 1 teaspoon of apple pie spice. Set aside.
3. Unfold the pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Gently press out any fold lines.
4. Using a 4 1/2-inch cookie cutter or knife, cut out eight circles from each pie crust.
5. Place a heaping tablespoon (approximately 2 tablespoons) of the apple pie filling mixture onto one half of each pastry circle.
6. Lightly brush the edges of each pastry circle with water.
7. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Press the edges firmly to seal.
8. Crimp the edges with a fork to create a decorative seal.
9. Place the turnovers onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
10. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the turnovers are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
11. While the turnovers are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until a smooth glaze forms. Adjust the amount of milk to reach your desired consistency.
12. Once the turnovers are out of the oven, let them cool slightly before drizzling generously with the powdered sugar glaze.
