Notes:
*Use the larger quantity of xylitol if you prefer your turnovers on the sweeter side.
*These turnovers are very big! Feel free to create 8 smaller ones instead. Please note that the baking time for 8 turnovers should be adjusted to around 12 minutes.
*Pair with your favorite protein shake to up the protein content for a perfect postworkout or morning snack!
