Best Apple Turnover
Once you have pastry made(or store bought, although store bought can never beat homemade in my opinion, even if it’s not as puffy, I would rather have a real pastry than a purchased puff pastry that is full of air).
Back to the turnovers… this is a super simple recipe to make once you have the puff pastry. If you need a puff pastry recipe check out my complete homemade puff pastry tutorial here. A big batch recipe that you can freeze and make many different pastry desserts with!
How to Make These Easy Apple Turnovers
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- 1 10×15 puff pastry sheet
- Peel and core one apple. Cut into tiny pieces.If you rather, shredding it also works well, but I suggest using another half an apple.
Add:
- 2 tsp flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
- Stir to coat the apple well.
- Take your sheet of pastry, and if it’s still frozen then leave it at room temperature for 10-15 minutes and it will be thawed. Cut it into equal pieces. If you are using my homemade puff pastry tutorial, then your sheet will be 10×15
- Cut into 6 equal pieces. If you don’t have a pastry mat with the measurements on it, then fold the pastry in half lengthwise and make a light crease, unfold it and cut it along the line. Then fold each half into thirds, making a light crease so that you know where to cut your pieces. (Yes, my one square is cut in half, those are for my boys!)
- Beat one egg until it’s foamy. I love using my little whisk that I have, it makes the egg whip up much quicker than if I were to use a fork! Even using a typical mini whisk, doesn’t do the job that this pampered chef whisk does! I use this whisk all the time, because it does such a good job, so quickly.
