Raspberry Turnovers!!

So Easy, fun and yummy...especially with ice cream!!

I've made these twice in the last month because they are so easy and a great dessert for company too!



You can always use premade pie dough if you are in a huge hurry, but the recipe that I use is down below and it's super easy.

You'll divide the dough into 12 equal parts, which for this recipe, makes 12 balls of dough about this size (that fit into a tablespoon)!

Roll out each ball with some flour to make about a 5 inch circle:

Put a Tablespoon of raspberry jam in the middle:

Then fold the circle in half over the jam, run a little water over one inside edge of the circle to help seal it a fold over the edges to form the turnover. Use a fork to press around it:

Ready to go in the oven:

And done ;)

Here's the recipe:
