Silpat Mat: amzn.to/3FFJnUy
Cookie Sheet: amzn.to/3nXPVWO
Enameled Skillet: amzn.to/3ADPw0M
Ingredients Needed:
4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
3 medium apples, (prefer to have 2 sweet, honey crisp or pink ladies and 1 tart granny smith)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
¼ cup packed brown sugar
⅛ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon cornstarch + 1 tablespoon water
1 package of Phyllo dough (12 sheets needed), completely thawed and no longer frozen
Optional: ⅓ cup of powdered sugar and Caramel for topping and/or vanilla ice cream
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium low heat on the stovetop. Turn off heat once melted and transfer 3 tablespoons into a bowl and leave 1 tablespoon in the skillet.
Peel the apples and dice into small ½ inch thin pieces. Transfer to a bowl and pour in lemon juice. Toss the apples to distribute the lemon juice evenly.
Turn the large skillet to medium low heat again and add in the apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir with a spoon to combine. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the apples are softened a bit.
Whisk the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water until no chunks remain and pour into the apple filling. Stir to combine and continue to cook for 2 minutes.
After two minutes the juices should be thick like a sauce. Turn off the heat and allow the apples to sit and cool.
Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silpat mat. Unwrap the phyllo dough sheets and place one sheet over parchment paper on the countertop. Brush the sheet with butter, then cover with another layer of dough. Repeat two more times, to have 4 layers of dough. (You will do this step 3 times to create 6 turnovers)
With a pizza cutter or sharp knife, when you are looking at the rectangle, slice it in half into 2 smaller rectangles.
Add a few tablespoons of filling into the top left area of the dough.
Fold the leftover side of dough over the filling. Then, take the top filling half and fold it towards you. Fold the excess on the right side over the top of the turnover. Finally, fold the extra dough under the filling on top of it. Place this side down on the cookie sheet. (See photo in instructions for visual or watch video)
Brush with melted butter. Bake for 15 minutes. Allow the turnovers to cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
Serve warm. Optional: Top with powdered sugar and caramel. Vanilla ice cream is tasty with these turnovers too.

Thanks for sharing this video. I truly enjoyed it.
Thank you so much 😊 that means the world to me!
Thank you for this video. I’ve never worked with phyllo before and this video is so great. I’m making cherry turnovers today using cherry pie filling from a can. I was hesitant but now that I’ve watched your video I’m confident that I can pull this off. Once again thank you for the video 😊
Yay! Let me know how they turn out 🥰🥰
Hi Tara, These were so fun to make. Your videos are great because I can make the recipe right along with you. The caramel and powdered sugar on top made them irresistible. I learned a lot too like how to work with Phyllo dough, your tips were very helpful. Thank you and of course, we ate them all by the next day....may need to make more......
Yay! So excited you loved these. They were one of my favorite apple desserts this year & I’m obsessed with the powdered sugar/caramel combo! Thanks so much for watching and making them 🥰🥰🥰
So very tasty and much easier than making apple pie! I will definitely make this over the holidays!
Yay! I agree! Love this one too 🥰🥰
Good morning Tara! I’ve made many apple pies in my life, but these would be really fun to make and share with friends. I help with 2 seniors and I know they would love this idea since a large pie would be way too much for them but this portion would be perfect! Thank you!😊
Hi Nick! This is honestly one of my favorite apple desserts. I hope they enjoy it.
I can't get the folding part right. My dough, kept tearing
The dough can be tricky to work with. Make sure it is the right amount of layers thick (4) and don’t pull it out of the fridge too early.
