Fall is definitely upon us with the drizzling rain and chilly days. This is the time of year that I get the most use out of my oven. There's just something comforting about baking when the skies are gray and the oven is putting off a little extra heat into the home. I wasn't going to share another apple recipe this season, but this Apple Turnover recipe from Golden Blossom Honey kept calling out to me this week and I simply couldn't resist baking up a batch to share with you all.
I don't normally make these kinds of recipes on weekdays since it does take longer than I'm willing to invest Monday through Friday, but after several days of rain, I was craving something warm and sweet while curled up in a blanket with my book. This is a great weekend breakfast idea, but I've been returning to my stash time and time again all week when I need a little pick-me-up. What's the good of fall if you can't enjoy its flavors as much as possible throughout the season?

Different kind of question today, but what are you reading this fall? I need some good book suggestions to get me through the season!
Oh, I read a loooot, but now I am finishing one of Norman Mailer books. Your turnovers look so yummy and cute!
ReplyDeleteI have to look up Norman Mailer and see if I'd be interested. Thanks, Natalia!
DeleteLooks fragrant and nom, Golden Delicious are my fave apples of all. We are currently in the grape season here!
ReplyDeleteHoneycrisp are my favorite, but Jason tends to go for Red Delicious. I do love me some granny smith for baking, though.
DeleteThose look incredibly yummy! I am reading a fantastic book right now called The Most Fun We Ever Had by Claire Lombardo. It’s rather long but I love a novel with lots of dialogue and good characterization.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the difference between flour and cake flour?? I'm sending this to my husband who's at Target as we speak. We haven't baked anything yet this season and I'm craving something "autumn" flavored. :)
ReplyDeleteCake flour has less gluten, so you don't get the dense, chewy consistency (think soft pretzels and bread) that you would with all purpose flour. Your crust will be light and airy with the use of cake flour.
DeleteI'm reading your blog, does that count? lol
ReplyDeleteHave to enjoy the tastes of the season while they are here indeed. If you have taste that allows it lol
Well, you can learn a lot from reading some blogs, so yes, it does count :)
DeleteUn estupendo bocado :-)))
ReplyDeleteThank you, Miju!
Deletefave apples looks delicious....I should try the recipe.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend
Thank you! You have a great weekend, too!
DeleteThat looks good. I've always used puff pastry for things like this but this dough recipe looks easy. Maybe I could do it and not mess it up. lol
ReplyDeleteI love using puff pasty as well, but if you're in a baking mood with a few extra steps, this is just as good :)
DeleteWow! Yummy!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteThis does look good!
ReplyDeleteI'm busy reading job applications. Ha!
I did get on with Costco, but also William Sonoma (as a key manager | visual merchandiser). Basically set up pretty still life's all the time. I have to call Costco because William Sonoma is closer, it's not seasonal, and it pays more. Then I have a phone interview as a social media , and one on Tuesday as a communication specialist. We shall see. It's all hitting at once.
Good luck on the job hunt, Alissa. I've been thinking about you since Fresh Thyme closed and have been hoping something comes along for you very soon!
DeleteCurling up with a good book, in a blanket, with a cup of java and one of these delicious looking apple turnovers sounds a-okay to me. These are perfect for Fall!
ReplyDeleteThat's my idea of a perfect day. But with tea, not coffee LOL :)
DeleteThese turnovers look delicious, Theresa! We've had cold and snow, so I've been curled up near the fire reading. Stay comfy!
ReplyDeletePlease keep the snow there, Louise. I don't think I can take it this early in the season yet! Stay warm, my friend!
DeleteThese look delicious, omg!
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
