Green Apple Turnover Gluten-free Dairy-free
OH do I love pies and turnovers, and I have a great recipe for a Green Apple Turnover for you! Yes it's Gluten Free, doesn't it look mouth watering and tender?
Servings: 6 turnovers
Calories: 505kcal
Ingredients
Pastry
- 1 Bag Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pie Crust
- 12 Tbsp COLD Butter alternative
- 8 Tbsp COLD shortening
Filling
- 1 TBS Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1 TSP Lemon Juice
- 1 1/2 Cups Organic Sugar
- 1/2 TSP Sea Salt
- 4 Granny Smith Apples Shredded
Topping
- Wholesome Organic Powdered Confectioners’ Sugar
- Cinnamon
Instructions
- -Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- -Prepare pie crust according to package directions.
- -Mix filling ingredients in a bowl, let set for 10 minutes and then drain*
- (You can save juice for use with other recipes such as oatmeal for breakfast. In fact, any of your leftover filling can be added in oatmeal for your breakfast)
- *While the apple mixture is draining, roll out your dough. Cut into squares using a pizza cutter or a knife. You can also roll out perfect squares using parchment paper as a package. Place squares of dough on parchment paper on the baking pan.
- -Put filling in middle of each square. Fold over carefully sealing by pressing with the tines of a fork. If there is any breakage don’t panic, just use some left over dough to patch the holes. The dough is very delicate but pliable.
- -Bake for 10 minutes until lightly brown. Do not overcook.
- -Allow to cool for about 10 minutes, right on the pan. Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar and cinnamon on top or a dollop of dairy free ice cream! Enjoy.
Notes
If you want a more cooked gooey center of apples, you can put the filling in a stove top cook pan, add 2 Tbsp corn starch and cook until apples are thickened and tender. Then just add that filling on the prepared pastry squares and proceed to crimp shut and bake.

I’ve never made a fruit based dessert yet.
They look delicious! Thank you for the recipe, I can’t wait to try them.
These sound really good.
It sounds pretty good. I would peel the apples first. I like the idea of using the tart apple for this recipe.
These sound really good. I would love to give these a try. I bet my whole family would just love them.
This recipe looks absolutely amazing! I look forward to trying it! Thanks so much! 🙂
Yummm this definitely doesn’t look gluten free, but it looks delish!
This looks amazing!
They look so yummy. Never had gluten free but I’d love to try them.
They look so delicious. Never had gluten free but I’d try them.
By shredding the apples you can cook the turnovers much more quickly. I shall have to try this recipe with less sugar and maybe different types of apples.
Oh yummy this sounds delicious
I have never tried green apple turnover but it looks good.I like that it’s gluten and dairy free.I definitely have to try this
I’ve actually made this recipe and its the easiest thing to make and it really is yummy .
Oh wow, these look so good! 🙂 I didn’t realize a turnover could be so easy to make, thank you for sharing!
I haven’t had turnovers in so long. I would not have thought to add pumpkin pie spice, which I do usually have on hand, but the spices do make it smell so good.
That looks very yummy and healthful. Thanks for the recipe.
