Apple Turnovers
If you return from apple picking with more fruit than you can eat, these apple turnovers are a delicious way to use them. Phyllo dough gives each turnover a light, crisp exterior without heavy pastry work. The filling is gently cooked so the apples stay tender but not mushy, and a touch of cornstarch keeps the juices from making the pastry soggy. For more apple-inspired baking, try quick breads, homemade applesauce, or slow-cooked apple butter.
