Directions
1.
Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line cookie sheet with sides or 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking parchment paper or foil. In medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour and the salt. Using pastry blender (or pulling 2 tables knives through ingredients in opposite directions), cut in shortening until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl (if necessary, 1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added).
2.
Gather pastry into a ball. On lightly floured surface, shape pastry into flattened round. Using rolling pin, roll into 12-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Place on cookie sheet.
3.
In medium bowl, toss apples and 1 tablespoon flour. Mound apple mixture on half of pastry to within 3/4 inch of edge. Sprinkle with toffee bits. Fold pastry in half over apple mixture. Fold 1/2 inch of sealed edge of pastry over; firmly press tines of fork around edge to seal. Brush top of turnover with egg. Cut 3 slits, 1 inch long, in top to vent steam. Sprinkle top with sugar.
4.
Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to serving plate. Cool 30 minutes before cutting.

Food Processor Directions for Making Pastry:
Into small bowl, measure 2 tablespoons water. In food processor, place shortening, flour and salt. Cover; process with on-and-off pulses until mixture is crumbly. With food processor running, pour water all at once through feed tube, processing just until dough leaves side of bowl (dough should not form a ball).

Tip:
High Altitude (3500-6500 ft): Bake 35 to 45 minutes.
