Apple turnover
Egg white. A simple egg wash of egg white and water will help keep the dry pastry together and helps it to bake up golden brown.Adds a bit more delicious flavor to the apple cinnamon filling. We’re using warm, cozy spices of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Lemon juice. The acidity of lemon keeps the apples from browning and balances the sweetness.Flour. A very small amount of flour helps to thicken the apple filling.To sweeten the filling, I prefer the flavor of brown sugar, but white sugar or even coconut sugar works too.
Great options are Honeycrisp (personal favorite!), Fuji, Granny Smith or Gala apples. Choose an apple that is firm enough to stand up well during the baking process and give the pastries a nice bite. Just a bit of butter helps to get the apples cooking and gives the filling a lovely rich flavor. My favorite way to celebrate the fall season! Oh and they would be such a wonderful addition to any holiday gatherings! They work great as a sweet brunch option, an afternoon snack or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate fall dessert. You simply cannot go wrong with these easy apple turnovers! Apple turnovers are made with buttery, flaky puff pastry that’s generously stuffed with gooey cinnamon apples and topped with an incredible vanilla glaze. They bake up nice and puffy and golden in the oven and get a drizzle of vanilla glaze over the top for a little extra sweetness. I use frozen puff pastry sheets to make them quickly and easily, and the homemade apple cinnamon filling is absolutely to die for. These apple turnovers are the tastiest little pastries that are perfect for a sweet breakfast or even dessert.
