What is National Cherry Turnover Day?
NATIONAL CHERRY TURNOVER DAY | AUGUST 28 – AUGUST 28.
On August 28th, National Cherry Turnover Day is celebrated with a delectable and sweet hand pie. These cherry-filled pastries are best enjoyed hot. However, many people eat them at room temperature, as well as any pie. Add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream. No doubt your pleasure will be doubled.
Cherry turnovers are a pastry made by spreading a cherry filling on a piece of dough. The dough is folded over and sealed. For a golden and flaky crust, the individual turnovers are baked or deep-fried at Then. Tart cherries make the best pies. Their juices meld with the sugar when baking since they need added sugar to be palatable. The results are delectable perfection!
A turnover is a single serving. They fit well in a hand, making them portable. Hand pie is another form of turnover. However, we do recommend a fork and plate when eating them piping hot.
Cherries on their own provide a bounty of nutrients. For example, the antioxidants in this red fruit, for example, shield cell cells from damage. Because cherries pack an anti-inflammatory punch, they may also help reduce heart disease risk. At Nutrition and You, find out more about cherries, tart or sweet.
