    PiePastry - Apple Raisin Turnovers

    1-1/2 teaspoon sugar
    1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
    1 medium apple, peeled or unpeeled, cored and cut into small cubes
    1 tablespoon dark raisins
    8 very fresh, reduced-calorie, whole-wheat bread slices

    In a custard cup, or on a small sheet of wax paper, stir
    together the sugar and cinnamon. In a 2-cup measure or similar
    small microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-cinnamon mixture,
    apple, and raisins. Stir to mix well.

    Cover with wax paper and microwave on high power for 1 minute.
    Stir. Re-cover and microwave on high power an additional
    1 to 1-1/2 minutes or until the apples are softened. Meanwhile,
    trim the crusts from the bread slices and discard them. With
    a rolling pin, flatten the slices to 1/8 inch thick.

    Place a generous tablespoon of apple mixture on one side of
    each bread slice, and spread it out slightly. To form turnovers,
    fold the bread over the filling to make a triangle shape.
    Seal the edges by pressing with fork tines.

    Lightly toast the slices in the toaster oven. Or toast under the
    broiler, browning lightly on one side and then the other. Cool
    slightly before eating. You can make a batch of the filling,
    use some of it immediately, and save the rest in the refrigerator.
    Then make additional turnovers over the next 2 to 3 days.
    Makes 8 servings.
