Notes

You can use frozen strawberries if desired, thaw first, and don't add any water.
You can adjust the sugar according to how sweet or tart your strawberries are.
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.
Store these easy strawberry turnovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
