Notes & Options:
There are lots of ways to modify this cranberry turnover recipe to spice it up, down or just change it to suit your palate. You can try:
– Add walnuts (or your favorite nut) to make it crunchier. Use walnut pieces (or chopped pine nuts even) and sprinkle them in with the cranberries before pouring the filling into the dough.
– Add some of your own favorite spices like nutmeg or cloves to enhance the holiday feel.
– This recipe is sweet. If you’d prefer to have it be healthier, use 1:1 granulated sweetener instead. It will make a big difference to the status of this food going from a dessert to, just a ‘snack’.
– Fresh berries are always best, but frozen ones work just as well as long as you thaw them and drain the excess cranberry juice first.
Enjoy
