I have had my share of apple, blueberry, and cherry turnovers, but I do not believe that I have ever had a strawberry turnover. So, kid you not, this April Fool's day I made flaky and tender strawberry turnovers.
Ingredients:
3 cups organic unbleached flour
10 large organic strawberries
1 cup non-dairy shortening, plus 2 tablespoons
1/4 cup cold water
1/4 cup organic almond milk
2/3 cup organic pure cane sugar
1 teaspoon organic cinnamon
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon organic nutmeg
Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees.
Line a baking sheet with non-bleached parchment paper, set aside.
Quarter each strawberry and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
In a large bowl, sift together the flour and salt. Cut in 1 cup of non-dairy shortening. Add the cold water and mix until dough is moist enough to hold together. You may add more water if needed, do so 1 tablespoon at a time.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8" thickness; cut into 5" squares. Divide the strawberries equally among the pastry squares. Sprinkle with the sugar mixture and top with a dot of butter.
Seal the edges with a fork, and cut a small slit in the tops. Brush the tops with the almond milk, and sprinkle with more of the sugar mixture.
Bake for 25-30 minutes.
