APPLE TURNOVERS

Delicious, yet so easy to make. Anyone can do these classic apple turnovers!

Provided by Maureen O'leary

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Apple Dessert Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 cups water
4 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and sliced
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
1 (17.25 ounce) package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine the lemon and 4 cups water in a large bowl. Place the sliced apples in the water to keep them from browning.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain water from apples, and place them into the hot skillet. Cook and stir for about 2 minutes. Add brown sugar, and cinnamon, and cook, stirring, for 2 more minutes. Stir together cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water. Pour into the skillet, and mix well. Cook for another minute, or until sauce has thickened. Remove from heat to cool slightly.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Unfold puff pastry sheets, and repair any cracks by pressing them back together. Trim each sheet into a square. Then cut each larger square into 4 smaller squares. Spoon apples onto the center of each squares. Fold over from corner to corner into a triangle shape, and press edges together to seal. Place turnovers on a baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between them.
  • Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until turnovers are puffed and lightly browned. Cool completely before glazing.
  • To make the glaze, mix together the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla in a small bowl. Adjust the thickness by adding more sugar or milk if necessary. Drizzle glaze over the cooled turnovers.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to slice the apples: This will help you get clean, even slices that will cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the apples: If you do, they will steam instead of sautéing and will not brown properly.
  • Cook the apples until they are soft and starting to brown: This will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a pastry brush to brush the edges of the puff pastry sheets with water before sealing them: This will help the edges stick together and prevent them from coming apart during baking.
  • Bake the apple turnovers until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy, flaky crust.

Conclusion:

Apple turnovers are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dessert. They can be made with a variety of different fillings, so you can customize them to your own taste. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create these tasty pastries that are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
