Honey Apple Turnovers
These are easier than apple pie! You can make fun decorations with the extra scraps of dough.
 
You'll need:  
1 Tbs   dried currants  
3 Tbs   finely chopped walnuts  
1/2 tsp   ground cinnamon, plus additional for dusting  
6 Tbs   honey, divided  
2   large baking apples  
  Prepared pie dough for two single-crust 9-inch pies (purchased or homemade)  
 
 
1 In a small bowl, combine currants, walnuts and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. Stir in 3 Tbsp. honey.
2 Peel apples and cut each in half lengthwise.
3 Trim away stem and blossom ends. Scoop out core from each half with a melon baller, making a wide hole for filling.
4 Divide honey mixture evenly between apple centers.
5 Divide pie dough into 4 balls. Roll each ball into a 6-inch circle about 1/4-inch thick.
6 Lay 1 piece of dough over each apple half with filling-side up. Tuck and wrap dough around each apple half. Trim dough to fit. Pinch the edges of dough underneath apples to seal entirely.
7 Combine 1 Tbsp. honey with 1 tsp. steaming hot water. Stir until honey dissolves. Brush mixture over tops of turnovers; dust with additional cinnamon.
8 Transfer turnovers to an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375°F for about 35 minutes, until turnovers art golden.
9 Remove from oven and drizzle with remaining 2 Tbsp. honey.
10 Serve warm or at room temperature.
