Jerry Traunfeld has been experimenting with rye flour for years; he loves the way it gives dough flavor and body. As these pastries illustrate, he has also been exploring ways to use celery seed in desserts. “It really complements the apple and rye,” he says.

Apple Rye Turnovers with Celery Seeds

The flavour is excellent! Rye and apples are made for each other. I often bake rye bread that incorporates apples ie. apple cider rye, levain au pomme. The pastry mixed up nicely. I rested it as directed and rested it again after rolling it out and cutting. I didn't stretch it while shaping the turnovers, but when I removed them from the oven, it looked like the pastry had shrunk and split over top of the filling. The crimped edges were fine. But, because of this the apples did not retain as much of their juiciness and were a little dry on the outside. Great flavours, just not a great recipe. Next time I think I will cut back on the amount of rye flour and possible substitute lard or shortening for some of the butter to give the dough a little more elasticity.
