Apple turnovers have existed for since the 17th century, although some called hand pies because their style makes them portable. Bakers fill a smaller, flaky pie crust with fruit or meat and fold it in half. Bake or fried the pie is baked or fried as the edges are sealed. For added sweetness, sprinkle a dusting of sugar or icing on top..
Nearly every culture has a recipe for a change in its menu. If the recipe is savory or sweet, the ingredients readily available determined how the dough was made. However, most doughs adapt to a sweet dish with the addition of fruit and sweet additives such as sugar, honey, or maple syrup.
Restaurants, bakeries, and even food trucks sell a variety of variations, and they make a delectable snack or meal. Apple turnovers come in a wide variety, as well. Apple cinnamon, apple raisin, or apple raisin are just a few of the combinations we've found on Caramel's apple cinnamon. Be sure to check out your local stores or make your own dish.
