Apple Turnovers


I'm going through a green apple phase, and this seems appropriate for the holidays....

INGREDIENTS
Vegetable oil cooking spray
2 medium Granny Smith apples, cored and thinly sliced
3 tbsp apple juice concentrate
2 tsp whole-wheat flour
1/4 tsp cinnamon (plus extra for sprinkling)
4 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
1 tbsp confectioners' sugar (optional)

DIRECTIONS
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Coat a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Toss apples, apple juice concentrate, whole-wheat flour and cinnamon in a bowl. Stack 2 phyllo sheets at a time and cut them in half, lengthwise. Place 3/4 cup of apple mixture across the end of one half. Roll up and place on cookie sheet. Repeat until you've used up all the apples. Brush top of each roll with juice from apple mixture. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake until browned, 15-20 minutes. Let cool. Sprinkle with sugar, if desired. Cut each roll in half.

Serves 8

This is surprisingly low-calorie (50 calories per turnover) and seems pretty healthy!

It is a quick and easy recipe to make. Apple Turnovers are a great dessert to have when the family are over. The taste of the apples, cinnamon, nutmeg and brown sugar are just part of the ingredients that go into the pastry to make this great dessert recipe. Serve with cream or ice cream.Bake the Apple Turnovers on a greased cookie sheet at 425 degrees for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Drizzle a confectioner’s sugar and water glaze over the turnovers when cool.
