Treat family and friends to these moreish apple turnovers. With an apple and cinnamon filling encased in puff pastry, they're delicious served with ice cream

Provided by Katie Hiscock

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 medium-large Bramley apples, peeled, cored and roughly chopped
50g golden caster sugar
½ tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp butter
1 Gala or sweet dessert apple, peeled, cored and cut into 1cm dice
320g pack puff pastry
2 tbsp milk to glaze
2 tsp demerara sugar

Steps:

  • Put the Bramley apple, sugar and cinnamon in a small pan with 1 tbsp water. Cover with a lid and simmer over a low heat for 10-15 mins until the apple breaks down and turns into a compote.
  • Stir in the butter and the Gala apple and cook for a further 5 mins, uncovered, until the Gala apple is just soft but retaining its shape, and any excess water has evaporated to make a thick compote around the Gala chunks. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
  • Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Unravel the puff pastry sheet out on a work surface, and cut into 4 even rectangles. Divide the apple filling to one side of each of the puff pastry rectangles, leaving a 1cm border. Brush the border with milk and fold over the empty side of pastry over the filling and crimp together. Brush with more milk and sprinkle over the sugar. Make a small steam hole in the middle of the turnovers.
  • Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 mins until golden and puffed up. Leave to cool for 10 mins on a wire rack (the filling will be molten when it first comes out the oven) before serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or serve at room temperature. Keep for 2 days in an airtight container.

1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Spoon apples onto the center of each squares. Fold over from corner to corner into a triangle shape, and press edges together to seal.

  • Work quickly: Puff pastry is a delicate dough, so it's important to work quickly to prevent it from becoming warm and sticky.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help to prevent it from shrinking.
  • Brush the turnovers with egg wash before baking: Egg wash will help to give the turnovers a golden brown color.
  • Serve warm: Apple turnovers are best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Apple turnovers are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flaky, golden brown pastry that is filled with sweet and juicy apples.
