Blueberry Turnovers

Courses: Dessert, Vegetarian

Recipe Ingredients

1 2/3 cups 394mlBlueberries
1/3 cup 65g / 2.3ozUnbleached cane sugar
4 teaspoons 20mlWhole wheat flour
4 teaspoons 20mlLemon juice
1/8 teaspoon 0.6mlGround ginger
1/2   Whole Wheat Turnover Pastry Dough - (see recipe)
  = (enough for 9 turnovers)

Recipe Instructions

In a small bowl, place the blueberries, sugar, flour, lemon juice, and ginger, and toss gently to combine.

Prepare the dough for the turnovers. Then cut the 5-inch and 6-inch circles of dough as described in the turnover pastry dough recipe.

On each of the prepared 6-inch circles of dough, place 3 tablespoon of the blueberry filling. Wet the edges of the circles of dough with water, place the 5-inch circles of dough on top of the filling, press down around the edges of the dough to seal, and crimp the edges with a fork.

Use a spatula to carefully transfer the turnovers to a non-stick cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned.

Serve the turnovers hot or cold. Allow them to cool completely on a rack before wrapping them individually in aluminum foil to preserve freshness. They can also be frozen in an airtight container after baking for later use.

This recipe yields nine 6-inch turnovers.

Variation: Other fruits and flavorings can be substituted for the blueberries such as, strawberries, raspberries, peaches, plums, apples, cherries, or vanilla, almond, maple, or mint as flavorings etc.
