Apple Turnover Recipe
Glaze:
Cut remaining butter into thin slices. Starting at a short side of the dough, arrange half of the butter slices over two-thirds of a rectangle to within 1/2 in. of edges. Fold the unbuttered third of dough over the middle third. Fold the remaining third over the middle, forming a 6-in. x 4-in. rectangle. Roll dough into a 12-in. x 6-in. rectangle.
Repeat steps of butter layering and dough folding, ending with a 6-in. x 4-in. rectangle. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate for 15 minutes. Roll dough into a 12-in. x 6-in. rectangle. Fold in half lengthwise and then widthwise. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate for 1 hour.
In a small bowl, combine egg and water. Roll dough into a 12-in. square; cut into four squares. Brush with half of the egg mixture. Spoon about 1/4 cup filling on half of each square; fold the dough overfilling. Press edges with a fork to seal. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush with the remaining egg mixture. With a sharp knife, cut three small slits in the top of each apple turnover.
