Gluten Free Apple Turnover Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose gluten-free flour
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 cup chilled butter
• 1/4 cup cold water
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 cups apples, peeled and diced
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 1/4 cup turbinado sugar

Instructions:

1. In a medium bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut the chilled butter into small pieces and add to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to combine the butter and flour until it resembles a coarse meal.
2. In a small bowl, combine the cold water, lemon juice, and egg. Whisk until combined.
3. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough is formed. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
4. In a large bowl, combine the apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, cornstarch, raisins, and vanilla. Mix until combined.
5. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface until it is about 1/4 inch thick.
6. Cut the dough into 4-inch circles. Place one circle on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place 2 tablespoons of the apple mixture in the center of the circle. Brush the edges of the circle with the milk and fold the circle in half. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
7. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and apple mixture. Brush the tops of the turnovers with the egg wash and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.
8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
9. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack.
10. Enjoy!
