Apple Pie Pockets

These are a really easy dessert, especially if you happen to have some leftover pie crusts.

1 pie crust, single recipe is fine (I follow the Good House Keeping recipe, but add a tbs sugar and a tsp cinnamon)
2 apples, golden delicious or granny smith, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
2 tbs sugar (plus a little more)
1/2 tsp cinnamon (plus a little more)
1/8 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp flour
Juice of a 1/4 lemon

Preheat oven to 350.

Mix together apples, sugar, spices, flour and lemon juice.

Roll out pie crust and cut in half. Place 1/2 the apple mixture on one crust and fold up the edges. It is okay if it doesn't meet completely. Repeat with the other piece. Sprinkle each with a little more sugar and a little more cinnamon. Place on a baking sheet and cook for about 25 minutes. Crust should be slightly browned and apples soft if you stick a fork through one of the holes.
