Mom's Apple Turnovers

Pastry for 9-inch two crust pie*
1/2 cup granulated
sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
4 to 5 medium tart cooking
apples
1 to 2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar

* Yes - The same pie crust that you would use in making an apple pie is used for the turnovers.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. 

In a large bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves; set aside.

Peel, core, and slice apples approximately 1/8-inch thick. Toss apple slices in sugar mixture until well coated.

Prepare pie pastry. Roll pie crust to a 20-inch x 16-inches rectangle; cut into 10 oblongs pieces. Place prepared apple filling on top of each oblong dough piece. Fold dough over to form a square; prick ends of the dough with a fork. Place the turnovers on a large lightly-buttered baking sheet. Brush milk over top of each turnover and then sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar onto tops.

Bake approximately 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown and apples are tender. Remove from oven and serve warm or at room temperature.

Turnovers may be frozen and heated before serving in a 400 degrees F. oven for about 5 minutes.

Makes 10 Apple Turnovers.
