Overview
About the event
National Cherry Turnover Day has been created in order to honor this sweet and tasty handmade pie. These pastries, which are filled with delicious cherries, are best served hot. It�??s not up to us to tell you how to enjoy your cherry turnover, though, so if you simply can�??t wait and you want to eat your cherry pie at room temperature, go for it! Many people do. You can serve it with a nice scoop of ice cream or a generous serving of whipped cream and it is going to take the dessert to even higher heights of scrumptiousness, if possible!
But what exactly is a cherry turnover? Well, a cherry turnover is basically a pastry that is made by placing a cherry filling inside of a piece of dough. You then fold the dough over and seal it so that the filling does not leak out. Once you have done this, you can either deep fry or bake the turnover, resulting in a deliciously flaky and golden crust, combined with sweet, warm cherries. It really is the perfect combination. Most people would agree that tart cherries are best when making pies. This is because their juices meld best with sugar when baking.
