What to do with an overabundance of CSA apples!
recipe by Amanda
For the past several weeks, Nick and I have gotten a ton of apples from our CSA. We've made apple crisp and apple cake already, so this week we decided to try something different. Today's dessert is: APPLE TURNOVERS!
Ingredients:
6 medium apples (we used Rome apples from our CSA)
1 Trader Joe's frozen pie crust (really nice ingredients)
3/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ginger
3 tbs cane sugar
1/2 cup water
Directions:
*pre-heat the oven to 400°
*peel and cube apples
*put apples in a sauce pan or skillet
*add spices, sugar and water to apples and stir
*cook on medium heat for about ten minutes or until apples are tender
*meanwhile, cut pie crust into 4'' diameter circles
*spoon softened apple mixture into the center of the crust circles (about a tbs of apples per crust circle) and fold over to close
*sprinkle sugar on top
*bake in oven for 20 minutes or until brown
Enjoy :)
