Baked Apple Turn-overs

My guys love these for breakfast, lunch, snack or dinner. They can grab one on the run.

First, make your favorite pie crust. Here is my mom's stand-by updated with a healthier fat.

Stir together:
2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Cut in scant 1/2 cup cold butter.

Add 1/3 to 1/2 cup cold water to form dough.



Second
, roll a handful of dough in rectangular shape.

Cut in squares.

Fill squares with diced, sugared and spiced apples.

(I dice, color treat, sugar and spice the apples in the fall. Then freeze in 1 quart bags for use later.)

Now fold into triangle. Moisten the edges and seal together. Place on lined or sprayed baking sheets. Continue until you are finished with all the dough.




Third, Bake at 400°F for about 20-25 minutes. Till just starting to brown.


Cool on rack.



Fourth, Glaze with powdered sugar and hot water.



Hide them if you don't want them to disappear when someone walks through the kitchen!
