Apple Butter Turnovers

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Place the first 4 ingredients in a food processor and pulse until it resembles coarse cornmeal.

   Step 2

   Sprinkle the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, in the food processor and pulse until the dough starts to come together.

   Step 3

   Form the dough into a disk, wrap in parchment paper or plastic wrap, refrigerate for 30 minutes.

   Step 4

   Roll out the dough 1/4 inch thick.

   Step 5

   Using cookie cutters, cut out turnovers into desired shapes (If you are making 8 turnovers, you need 16 cut-outs, one for the top and one for the bottom).

   Step 6

   Place one cut-out on a parchment or silpat lined baking sheet, top with 2 tsp of apple butter (depending on the size of your shape) leaving a 1/4 inch border around the cut-out.

   Step 7

   Combine the honey and water together in a separate bowl.

   Step 8

   Brush the 1/4 inch border with the honey water, place matching pastry shape on top of the apple butter and using the tines of a fork, gently press down to seal the dough.

   Step 9

   Brush the remaining honey water on top of each turnover.

   Step 10

   Using the tip of a knife, cut several slits through the dough (to allow ventilation).

   Step 11

   Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
