Servings: 4 turnovers

Ingredients

  • 2 medium sized Envy apples peeled cored, and diced
  • 1 tablespoon apple juice
  • 1 tablespoon butter melted
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 of a 17.25 ounce package frozen puff pastry sheets thawed
  • 1 egg beaten for egg wash

For the Maple glaze:

  • 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Combine the apple juice and diced apples in a bowl to prevent them from turning brown. Add brown sugar, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and melted butter to apple mixture. Stir well to combine. Set aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry to a 12-inch by 12-inch square. Brush any excess flour from pastry.
  • Cut each sheet into 4 squares. Place 2 squares onto prepared baking sheet.
  • Brush the edges of each square with the egg wash and neatly place 1/3 cup of the apple mixture on half of the square.
  • Fold the pastry diagonally over the apple mixture, pressing gently. Seal by gently pressing the edges with a fork, being careful not to make holes with the fork.
  • Brush the top with egg wash, make a small slit on the top of each turnover.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, until lightly browned and puffed.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes.

Make the maple glaze:

  • Combine all glaze ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Drizzle over warm turnovers.
