Ingredients:
- 2 medium apples, diced (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp are most suitable)
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- ½ teaspoons cinnamon, freshly ground
- 1 egg
- All-purpose flour
- 14 ounces puff pastry, defrosted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¼ cup heavy cream
Apple Turnovers: Preparation Method
First, combine the brown sugar, thinly sliced apples, and cinnamon in a saucepan. Stir occasionally and cook for up to 7 minutes at low heat. Next, beat the egg with one tablespoon of water in a bowl.
Next, turn on the oven and preheat it to 400°F. Take a baking sheet and line it with baking paper. Then, put some all-purpose flour on your working surface and roll the puff pastry dough into a square. Cut nine squares and spoon each with the apple filling. Fold them over the filling carefully to form a triangle, and press gently with a fork. If you want, you can make small slits on top of the turnovers. Put them on the baking sheet, brush them with the beaten egg, and let them sit for about 15 minutes.
Bake the turnovers until golden brown, reducing the oven to 350°F after 15 minutes. Finally, combine the sugar and salt with ¼ cup water in a saucepan. Cook until the mixture has turned golden brown. Remove from the heat and add the cream and unsalted butter. Once the mixture cools, drizzle it over the pastry.
