PHYLLO DOUGH APPLE TURNOVER RECIPES

Steps:

• "Peel and dice apples. In a medium saucepan, add apples, sugar, vanilla, orange/lemon peel, cinnamon and cornstarch. Heat on med-low stirring every so often. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the apple mixture thickens. Remove from heat. Remove phyllo dough from package and have a damp towel ready so you can keep the phyllo sheets covered as you work. They tend to dry out very quickly. Melt butter. Using a pastry brush, brush one phyllo sheet. The longer side facing you. Fold in half (vertical) and brush again. Fold again to form a long strip. Brush again with butter if you like. On one edge, add about 1 1/2 TBS of apple filling. Roll in the form of a triangle... just like you would fold a flag. Brush the outside of the triangle phyllo turnover with extra butter. Place on a cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 15 minutes or until nicely golden brown. Check after about 10 minutes so that they won't burn. Oven temps vary. Let cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar."

Steps:

• Unroll pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 4 equal square pieces. 
• Spoon apple pie filling int the corner of each square. 
• Sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar on top of the filling. 
• Fold the pastry diagonally from one corner to the other in a triangle shape, enclosing the filling inside.
• Use a fork to press and seal the edges together OR you can just pinch all along the edges tightly, which is what I did.
• Place them on a cookie tray, lined with parchment paper.
• Optional: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg and water. Brush this on ton top of each pastry. Sprinkle sanding sugar on top.  
• Bake at 375 degrees F for about 20-25 minutes or until pastry is golden brown. Enjoy!
