Apple Nappies

I  first cooked  these years ago when I was asked to recipe test them for a  recipe book for  students that went away on camp for a month and had to cook all their meals, My daughter renamed them Apple nappies due to their shape ,I think I would of called them something like and apple turnover !!. they are quite wonderful and super easy. recipe came from Annabel Langbein

  4. Place about 5 slices of apples ( depending on the size of the apples ) into the middle of the pastry  squares
  5. Bring up the sides of the pastry and press each side seal so it sort of resembles a nappy
