Boysenberry Turnovers (aka: The Andrew Gannon)

I brought these boysenberry turnovers to our Anchor Christmas party and they were a hit! We even came up with a name since I didn't really have a name for these little pastries... so by popular demand, I have posted the easy recipe for Boysenberry Turnovers (aka: Andrew Gannons) below :)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Prepare your own pie crust dough (look at previous blog post for an amazing recipe) or use the ready to go refrigerated pie dough dough.

Roll out the dough and fold in half. Then, cut triangle pieces or half moon shapes (keeping 2 layers together).

Fill pie dough with 1-2 tsp. of boysenberry jelly (or another favorite jam/jelly) and pinch the edges to seal the dough. Then, using a fork, gently press down along the edges. Lightly brush turnovers with egg wash (1 egg, beaten) and sprinkle with a little bit of sugar. Bake for approx. 8 minutes, or until lightly brown. Eat warm or at room temperature. (To keep fresh, store in a bag or tupperware.)

* You can also make apple turnovers: simply dice apples and mix with a cinnamon sugar oatmeal packet. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar over the egg wash.

* Feel free to make the turnovers as big or as small as you like, just add more or less filling :)
