Apple Turnover




Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl combine:
1 cup shortening
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
Mix with a fork or pastry mixer till well blended (like you are making a pie crust).

Mix together
1 egg yolk (save the egg white)
2/3 cup milk
Add to other ingredients and mix into a dough.

Roll dough onto wax paper or tinfoil into a rectangle shape. (If using tinfoil, grease and flour lightly). Transfer dough with paper to a baking sheet. Cover half the dough with two handfuls of quick oats. Spread 1 can of apple pie filling over oatmeal. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Fold over other half of dough on top and seal the edges. Whisk egg white till it forms a peak and brush white ontop of crust. Cut slits into the top layer of crust to allow for steam to come out. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. (It will look done sooner, but leave it for the full hour.) Spread turnover with glaze when its done cooking.

Glaze: (mix ingredients until well blended.)
2 Tbsp. milk
1 cup powder sugar
2 Tbsp. butter or marjarine
1 tsp. vanilla
