Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon butter unsalted
- 8 medium apples peeled, cored, shredded or sliced
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon ground
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar packed
- 2 heets puff pastry
- 1 egg for egg wash
Instructions
- Prepare apples: In a medium skillet heat the butter and then add the apples, cinnamon and sugar.
- Cook until all the juice from the apples is soaked up and the apples are cooked through, about 10 minutes. Let the filling cool for about 5 minutes.
- Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 400℉.
- Assemble turnovers: On a floured surface, roll out each sheet of pastry and cut into 4 pieces, each piece should be about 5 x 5 inches.
- This will make 8 turnovers, so add ⅛ of the apple mixture to each pastry. You can fold it any way you want, either as a triangle or as a rectangle. Brush some egg around the edges of the pastry, then seal the edges with a fork.
- Brush the turnovers with egg wash and cut a couple slits into each pastry.
- Bake: Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until and and golden brown.

Notes
- I've used store bought puff pastry in this recipe. You can definitely make your own if you'd like. You can also use any pie pastry if that's more convenient for you.
- Freeze:
- Cool them first, and do not ice them or sprinkle them with powdered sugar. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the turnovers in a single layer. Place the sheet in the freezer and flash freeze them for about an hour.
- After frozen, wrap each turnover in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then place them in a freezer bag and store in the freezer for up to a month.
- Reheat foil-wrapped turnovers in a 325 degree F oven for 15 minutes, or until heated through. I also place mine in the microwave for a minute, without foil.
