Glazed Fruit Turnovers

1 cup chopped, peeled apple or pear
2 Tbsp dried cranberries
1 Tbsp splenda
1 tsp wheat flour
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
A dash ground nutmeg
3 sheets frozen phyllo dough (17x12-inch rectangles), thawed
Nonstick cooking spray
1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 tsp fat-free milk

1. For filling, in a small mixing bowl combine apple or pear, dried cranberries, splenda, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside. Unfold phyllo dough. Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a cutting board. Spray with nonstick spray. Repeat layering and spraying remaining phyllo, keeping phyllo covered with a damp cloth, and removing only one sheet at a time. Using a sharp knife, cut the stack lengthwise into 4 strips.

2. For each turnover, spoon about one-fourth of the filling about 1 inch from the end of each strip. Fold the end over the filling at a 45 angle. Continue folding to form a triangle that encloses the filling, using the entire strip. Repeat with remaining strips of phyllo and filling. Spray tops with nonstick cooking spray.

3. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Place triangles on the baking sheet. Bake in a 350 degree F oven about 15 minutes or until golden.

4. For glaze, in a small bowl combine powdered sugar and milk. Drizzle over warm turnovers. Serve warm or cool.
