TWD: Flaky Apple Turnovers





Quick post as I am taking the Littlest Baker to the doctor today...2 month check up and (gasp!) shots!

recipe: Flaky Apple Turnovers from Dorie Greenspan's Baking from My Home to Yours (via baking club Tuesdays With Dorie (aka TWD).

chosen by: twd club member Julie of Someone's in the Kitchen

verdict: delicious!!!!! love these...love the dough-though it was super crumbly maybe I did not do the cutting in of butter too well?? I had to add some H20 to it.

photos: as seen below...I tried to add a cut-out apple shape to the tops of these, but it puffed up..hopefully you see what I was going for...


Ok, off to get the apple of my eye (pun intended) up from his nap...if only he was old enough to have some of these sweet treats as a way to console him after the 4 vaccinations! Someday....

Oh, those infant shots are so hard... for Mom!! If it's like it was 24 years ago, the little ones sleep a lot after their inoculations. Fingers crossed that it all goes well. Speaking of going well, those turnovers turned out so pretty! I love the puffy apples and your crust is beyond flaky!

I hated shot day for the little ones..hope your baby does OK!

What an adorable little apple cutout! I love how puffy it is :) I hope the shots went well (as with Nancy, I believe it's hardest on you!).

The apple cutouts are cute! The fact that they are puffy is a good thing. Hope baby is OK.

Your little apple is cute on top of that flaky delicious.

Shots seem to hurt mom more than they hurt babies. They cry, then they forget and sleep. **SIGH**
