Fresh cooked Apple Turnovers are rich with natural flavors and has a soft delicate soothing texture that is absolutely delicious. The simmering apples create a seasonal perfume that is rich with cinnamon-sugary notes. Perfect for a mid morning snack or with a cold glass of milk any time of the day. These Apple Turnovers are a buttery cinnamon laced way to distract yourself from the demands of a daily routine and they are a delight to share with others. We have made this a few times and they never last very long. I love how the lightly browned pastry glistens with the granulated crystals giving this treat a presentation not found at the local fast food window or frozen food section of the grocery store.

Peel & remove core of the apples. Cut into ¼” cubes. Place butter in the saucepan. Turn up the heat to medium and wait until the butter is melted.

Place the cool apple filling in the center of each pastries (leaving ½ boarders around the edges).
