Ingredients

  • 1 (17.3-ounce) package frozen puff pastry thawed according to package directions
  • 12 ounces fresh blackberries
  • Zest of ½ large lemon
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • coarse sparkling sugar

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Thaw puff pastry according to package directions.
  2. In a medium bowl, add blackberries, lemon zest, granulated sugar, salt, and flour. Gently toss to combine and evenly coat blackberries.
  3. Beat egg with a fork until completely blended. Set aside along with a pastry brush.
  4. Gently roll out each sheet of puff pastry to be slightly larger. Cut the puff pastry sheet into 8 squares.
  5. Brush a thin layer of beaten egg on 2 joining sides of each square.
  6. Divide blackberry filling evenly between squares.
  7. Fold each square in half to create a triangle and gently seal the edges. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Brush the remaining egg wash on the top of each turnover. Use a sharp knife to cut a small gash in each turnover for venting. Sprinkle with coarse sanding sugar.
  9. Bake for 25-35 minutes until deep golden brown.

Notes

  • Frozen blackberries may be used in place of fresh. If using frozen blackberries, thaw completely first. Thoroughly drain the liquid from the thawed berries, then proceed as directed.
  •  
  • Store: Keep leftover blackberry turnovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you prefer them warm, just reheat before serving to enjoy that flaky texture again.
  • Freeze: Assemble the turnovers and freeze them unbaked on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once frozen solid, transfer them to a freezer-safe container. Baked turnovers can also be frozen and reheated directly from frozen for a quick treat.
  • Reheat: For the best results, reheat turnovers in a 350°F oven or air fryer for 5-7 minutes. This method brings back the crispy, golden puff pastry while warming the filling perfectly. Avoid the microwave, as it can make the pastry soggy.
  • Make Ahead: Prep these turnovers up to the point of baking and refrigerate them, covered with plastic wrap, for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, pop them straight into the oven for freshly baked pastries on demand!
