Description

These Apple Turnovers with Puff Pastry bring together delightful flavors of caramelized apples and a sweet glaze, perfect for dessert lovers looking for an easy homemade treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Puff Pastry, Thawed
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 3 medium Apples, Peeled, Cored & Diced
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp Flour
  • 1 Egg + 1 tbsp Water
  • 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1–2 tbsp Milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Thaw Puff Pastry according to instructions while preparing the apple filling.
  2. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add diced apples and cook until softened, stirring occasionally.
  3. Lower heat and mix in brown sugar and cinnamon. Simmer for 3 minutes until apples caramelize. Set aside to cool.
  4. Dust a surface with flour and roll the first sheet of Puff Pastry into an 11" square. Cut into 4 equal squares.
  5. Place cooled apple filling on half of each square, leaving a 1/2" border.
  6. Whisk the egg and water for an egg wash and brush lightly on the pastry edges to seal. Press edges with a fork to crimp.
  7. Repeat with the second sheet of Puff Pastry.
  8. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring at least 1" space between them. Cut slits on top to prevent leaking.
  9. Brush tops with egg wash and bake for 20-22 minutes until golden and puffed.
  10. For the glaze, whisk powdered sugar with milk until the desired consistency is reached. Drizzle over the turnovers.

Notes

Ensure the pastry is fully thawed for best results.
Feel free to add raisins or other dried fruits to the apple filling for additional flavor.
Serve warm for the best taste experience.
