Ingredients

  • 2 apples peeled cored and diced (I like to use Granny Smith)
  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 lemon juiced
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 egg white plus 1 tablespoon water whisked together
  • 1 puff pastry sheet thawed
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees, lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Melt butter in a skillet, add apples and cook for about 3 minutes. Add sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, lemon juice stir. Bring to a simmer and cook until sauce is thickened about 5 minutes.
  • Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheet. Use a rolling pin to gently roll over the seams. Cut the sheet into four squares. Divide the mixture up evenly and spoon it into the center of the pastry square. Fold the pastry in half and pinch the edges together using a fork. Repeat with the remaining squares. Brush some egg wash on top of the pastries to help them become nicely browned. Place on baking sheet. Bake 12-15 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes on cooling rack
  • In a small bowl whisk the powdered and milk together until combined. If you want it thicker just add a little more sugar. Drizzle glaze over turnovers.
  • **If you want to freeze some of the turnovers. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place in freezer. Once they are frozen you can put them in a ziplock freezer bag and they wont stick together. Bake 15-20 minutes

Notes

This recipe can easily be doubled to make 8 turnovers.
