The fresh raspberry filling of these turnovers balances the saltiness of the crust. That right there makes these treats more satisfying. Like what we have said earlier, you can eat them with a cup of coffee or tea. Freshly squeezed juice would be an excellent pair as well.

This recipe utilizes a pre-made crust. But if you have more time to spare, you can make your own crust, too. And, no, it’s not that hard to make. Enjoy! ๐Ÿ™‚
