Apple turnovers have been around since the 17th century, but also called hand pies because their shape makes them portable. Bakers fold it in half and make a smaller, flaky pie crust with fruit or meat and fold it in half. The pie is baked or fried depending on the edges. Add a dusting of sugar or icing on top for added sweetness.
Nearly every culture has a recipe for a change in its repertoire. Whether the dish is savory or sweet, the ingredients readily available determined how the dough was made. However, most doughs will convert to a sweet dish with the addition of fruit and sweet additives such as sugar, honey, or maple syrup.
A variety of turnovers are available, including bakeries, and even food trucks, and they make a delectable snack or dinner. Apple turnovers also come in a wide variety. Just a few of the combinations we've found include apple cinnamon, apple cinnamon, or apple raisin. Be sure to check out your local stores or make your own dish..
