Make it lactose-friendly

1 gill of milk → lactose-free milk, oat milk, or almond milk
1 tablespoonful of butter → plant butter, ghee (mostly lactose-free), or olive oil

Mix the flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar. Rub this mixture through a sieve and then rub into it the butter. Now beat the egg till light, and add to it the milk. Stir this liquid into the dry ingredients. Sprinkle the moulding board with flour, and roll down the dough to the thickness of about one fourth of an inch. Cut this dough into cakes the size of a saucer. It is a good way to lay a saucer upside down on the dough and cut around it with a jagging-iron or knife.
Put two tablespoonfuls of stewed, sweetened, and seasoned apples on each piece of dough; fold over, and roll up, pinching the edges together. Have on the fire a kettle containing hot fat about five or six inches deep. When the fat begins to smoke, put in a few turnovers and cook for eight minutes. Drain on brown paper. They are good hot or cold.
The apple used in turnovers may be flavored with either cinnamon or nutmeg.
