Yield: 1 large square turnover (2 triangle servings)
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
Apple Filling
1 fresh apple, peeled and diced or sauced
1–2 tsp maple syrup (to taste)
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp vanilla extract
Egg-Free Wash
1 cup chickpea flour or graham flour (or 1 cup rolled oats, blender-blitzed into flour)
½–¾ cup water (adjust for consistency)
1 tsp maple syrup
1 pinch salt
For Assembly
2 large round rice paper sheets
Parchment paper (for lining the air fryer basket)
Instructions
Prepare the Filling:
In a small bowl, combine the apple, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla. Mix until evenly coated. Set aside.
Make the Egg-Free Wash:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chickpea (or graham, or oat) flour, water, maple syrup, and salt. The mixture should be thin enough to coat the rice paper smoothly—similar to a light batter. Add more water if necessary. Pour into a shallow round dish.
Prepare the Rice Paper:
Working one at a time, dip each rice paper sheet into the egg-free wash, coating both sides.
Lay one sheet flat, then stack the second on top for extra sturdiness.
Assemble the Turnover:
Spoon the apple mixture into the center of the stacked rice papers, forming a small mound.
Fold the rice paper edges up and over the filling to form a square packet. Press gently to seal.
Air Fry:
Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper.
Place the turnover seam-side down.
Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the turnover to cool slightly.
Slice diagonally to form two triangle pieces.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
