Are warm apple turnovers with tortillas Mexican?

While apple turnovers are a delicious treat, they are not traditionally Mexican.

Here's why:

* Ingredients: Traditional Mexican pastries typically don't use apples. They often feature fillings like beans, cheese, savory meats, or sweet fillings like cajeta (a caramel-like sauce).

* Dough: While tortillas can be used as a base for turnovers, they are usually made with corn or wheat flour, not the puff pastry or flaky dough common in apple turnovers.

* Cultural Context: Apple turnovers have a strong association with European and American baking traditions, not Mexican cuisine.

It's possible that someone in Mexico might have adapted the idea of an apple turnover using tortillas, but it's not a traditional or widespread dish.

If you're looking for a delicious Mexican pastry, consider exploring options like:

* Empanadas: These savory pastries can be filled with a variety of fillings like ground beef, cheese, or potatoes.

* Conchas: These sweet breads feature a distinctive shell-like topping and are often filled with vanilla custard or dulce de leche.

* Pambazos: These sandwiches feature a crusty bread dipped in a spicy sauce and filled with chorizo and potatoes.
