National Cherry Turnovers Day

Cherry turnovers are a type of pastry that are filled with a sweet cherry filling and baked until golden brown. They are similar to apple turnovers, but instead of apples, they are filled with cherry pie filling. To make cherry turnovers, a pastry dough is first rolled out and cut into squares or circles. A spoonful of cherry pie filling is then placed in the center of each piece of dough, and the edges are folded over and crimped to seal the filling inside. The turnovers are then baked in the oven until the pastry is golden brown and crispy, and the filling is hot and bubbly. They are often served warm with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of icing on top. Cherry turnovers are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven, or enjoyed fresh out of the oven with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream.
