Apple Turnovers Recipe:

Ingredients:

Apple Filling:

1.5Lbs       Apples

25g            Butter

50g            Brown Sugar   

1.5g           Cinnamon

1g              Salt

Icing:

60g           Icing Sugar

13g            Milk

1g              Vanilla

500g         Puff pastry

Procedure:

-      Pull puff pastry from the freezer the night before. (If you would like to make your own I have a separate recipe for it, if you would prefer to skip that step I recommend the tenderflake puff pastry from the store)

-      Peel, core and dice apples to ¼” thick squares. Melt butter in a medium saucepan on medium heat and cook apples until slightly softened, about 5 min. Add brown sugar, cinnamon and salt and cook on med/low for another 3 min or until apples have softened and caramelized a bit. Let cool

-      While the apple filling is cooling, roll puff pastry to a 9 by 18 rectangle. Cut 8 4.5” squares and place back in fridge until apple filling is cool.

-      Preheat oven to 400ºF.

-      Using 1 egg and a splash of milk or cream, beat egg wash with a fork.

-      Place apple filling on ½ of youre puff square leaving ¼ inch around the outside. Egg wash one half of the puff square. Fold the puff square in half, pinching together the sides until you have an enclosed triangular pocket.

-      Using a fork crimp where you pinched to seal.

-      Using a sharp knife, score 3 lines on the top.

-      Egg wash and bake for 20-23 min until golden brown.

-      While cooling, whisk together icing sugar, milk and vanilla to make your icing. Drizzle on once cooled and let set.

Makes 6-8 apple turnovers
