    A heavenly combination of buttery layers and juicy strawberries, baked to golden perfection. With strawberry season in full bloom, these flaky pastries make a perfect breakfast or dessert and a delicious Summer indulgence, like my Strawberry Swiss Roll Cake or Strawberry Crumble Bars!

    Why this recipe works

    Using just s few ingredients and using some store-bought puff pastry from the grocery store you'll be making these fruit turnovers over and over this summer.  Whether served on their own, accompanied by a scoop of ice cream, or paired with a dollop of whipped cream, strawberry pastries are a delicious and irresistible indulgence. If you prefer a regular pie crust try my Air Fryer Apple Pies and Cherry Hand Pies.

    Ingredients Needed

    All the ingredients needed for strawberry turnovers.

    Ingredients Notes

    • Strawberries: I like to use fresh strawberries but frozen will also work.
    • Corn starch: This is a must in this recipe it helps thicken the strawberry sauce so it isn't so runny.
    • Sugar: Granulated sugar can be adjusted depending on how sweet your strawberries are.

    How to make these fresh strawberry turnovers

    Fresh strawberries being cooked in a saucepan and puff pastry dough placed on a cutting board.
    • Step 1: Heat a medium saucepan on medium-low heat and add the diced strawberries, water, sugar, and cornstarch and simmer until thickened.
    • Step 2: Roll out the puff pastry dough onto a lightly floured surface.
    Puff pastry cut into four even squares and strawberry filling added in them.
    • Step 3: Cut the puff pastry sheets into four equal parts, I like to use a pizza cutter.
      Step 4: Add some of the fruit filling into the center.
    A fork pinching the edges of the dough then placed on a baking sheet.
    • Step 5: Fold the pastry over and using a fork pinch the edges of the turnovers.
    • Step 6: Place the turnovers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
    Egg wash brushed on top of the turnovers and a fork cutting holes in the top of the dough.
    • Step 7: Brush some egg wash over the top.
    • Step 8: Using a sharp knife cut a couple slits in the top.
    Strawberry turnover baked on a baking sheet then icing drizzled over the top.
    • Step 9: Bake until golden brown.
    • Step 10: Remove from the oven and drizzle the glaze over the top of each pastry.

    Recipe Tips

    • You can adjust the sugar according to how sweet or tart your strawberries are.
    • Place a piece of parchment paper on the baking sheet for easy clean-up.
    • If you don't want a glaze on top, you could sprinkle granulated sugar on top before baking. Or give them a dusting of powdered sugar just before serving.
    • Make sure you pinch the edges to prevent the filling from oozing out.
    • In a time crunch? Use store-bought strawberry jam.
