Description

These warm and flaky apple turnovers are filled with sweet, cinnamon-spiced apples and wrapped in buttery puff pastry. Perfect for a quick, delicious treat!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large apples, peeled and diced
  • 2 tbsp sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  3. Roll out the puff pastry and cut into 4 squares.
  4. Spoon the apple mixture into the center of each square.
  5. Fold the pastry over the filling to form a triangle and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.
  6. Brush with a beaten egg for a golden finish.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden and puffed.
  8. Let cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar.

Notes
