In this video we make apple and pear turnovers. It is not hard, especially if you own a food processor. In this video I do it all by hand.

Procedure:

1- In a bowl combine the flour, brown sugar, and fine salt. Mix well.
2- Slice the butter into small pieces, say about 1/4" thick
3- Put these pieces into the flour and cut in with the cutting tool OR Put that butter/flour mix into a food processor and use very short pulses or you will over blend that butter.
4- Mix together the egg and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl.
5- Add the egg and apple cider vinegar to the flour.
6- Using your hand, start to squeeze the ingredients together
7- Add a couple tablespoons of the ice cold water as you squeeze, but add sparingly.

12- Cook till the apples reach a consistency that you like, we like it soft with a little bite.
13- Put cooked fruit into a sealable container and refrigerate till cold.
14- When ready to make the turnovers cut the dough ball in half and put one half in the refrigerator.

17- Use the pot cover to cut perfectly round turnover dough.
