Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    In 2-quart saucepan, mix apples, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of the water and the lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until bubbly. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender.
  • 2
    In small bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar and salt. Gradually stir into apple mixture, cooking and stirring until mixture thickens. Remove from heat; stir in butter and vanilla. Cool 15 minutes.
  • 3
    Meanwhile, heat oven to 375°F. Let pie crust pouch stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • 4
    Remove pie crust from pouch; unroll crust on ungreased cookie sheet. Spoon cooled fruit mixture evenly onto half of crust to within 1/2 inch of edge.
  • 5
    In small bowl, beat egg and 1 tablespoon water; brush over edge of crust. Fold untopped half of crust over apple mixture; firmly press edge to seal. Flute edge; cut small slits in several places in top crust. Brush top with remaining egg mixture.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Tart apples, such as Granny Smith or McIntosh, make flavorful pies. Braeburn or Gala apples provide good texture and a slightly sweeter flavor.

  • tip 3
    A turnover is a type of pastry recipe made by filling a piece of dough, folding the dough over, sealing it and baking it. For more ways to make pie without a pie pan, check out all of our hand pie recipes.
  • tip 4
    Cutting small slits in the top of the crust before baking allows the steam produced by the filling to escape during baking and avoids “pie gap,” which is when the filling shrinks but the crust stays lifted and leaves a wide gap between the two layers.
  • tip 5
    Serve turnovers with vanilla ice cream for an even more decadent treat!
