After making some pastries with orange blossom water, I had some left-over ingredients.
I had about a ½ cup of walnuts, ½ a jar of juice/syrup from the apricots, and maybe about a teaspoon of orange blossom water. I combined the ingredients in the jar and they’ve been in the fridge that way for over a week.
Ingredients:
1 uncooked pie crust or rolled out pie dough
3-4 apples peeled, and sliced
juice from ½ a fresh lemon
room temperature butter
nutmeg
cinnamon
ginger
apricot syrup-orange blossom water-walnuts
Directions:
After peeling and slicing the apples, place in a small Tupperware and add the fresh lemon juice to them. Seal the Tupperware and shake container so the lemon juice covers the apples. It makes them tart and prevents them from turning brown.
Preheat oven to 385 F/ 196 C
On parchment paper (baking not documents) on a cookie sheet, unroll or roll out the crust.
With a butter knife, spread some butter on the dough, mostly in the middle.
Sprinkle a good dash of each spice; nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger.
Add the apples
Add a tab or so of butter
Add the apricot syrup-orange blossom water-walnuts
Fold (turn over) the dough in half so as to seal the dough. Pinch the dough around the semi-circle. It should look a bit like a calzone.
Bake in the oven.
When/if juice begins to leak or ooze out of the dough, especially around the edges, use a pastry brush to apply the juice to the top of the turnover glazing the dough
Bake until brown.
Serve with vanilla ice cream.
I should have gotten a better picture of this but my parents devoured it with little encouragement. : )
