Using slightly wet fingertips
bring one corner of the pastry square up to the top of the apple
then bring the opposite corner to the top and press together. Bring up the two remaining corners
and seal. Slightly pinch the dough at the sides to completely seal in the apple. Repeat with the remaining apples and place in the prepared baking dish.
