Autumn Apple Turnovers

Ingredients

  • I batch of Quick Puff Pastry*
  • 3 tart baking apples, Granny Smith, Fuji or Cortland are all good peeled and chopped into a 1/2 inch dice.
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1 egg white + 1 tablespoon of water for glaze
  • sparkling or coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400F.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the apples with the spices, sugar, vinegar and flour and toss to coat evenly. Set aside,
  3. Divide the dough in half, only working with one chunk at a time.
  4. Roll dough into a 10x10 square, then cutting it into 4 smaller 5x5 squares. Place a scant 1/4 cup of filling into the center of each square. Use a pastry brush dipped in some water to moisten the edges of the square and then fold diagonally into a triangle, using a fork to crimp the edges to seal.
  5. Place the sealed triangles in a parchment-lined cookie sheet and repeat the rolling/filling/folding with the other half of the dough. (If you have enough counter space to roll out the whole thing at once by all means do, I found it easier to work in 2 batches.)
  6. Brush all the triangles with the egg white wash and use a small knife to make a small steam vent in each turnover. Sprinkle with sparkling or coarse sugar.
  7. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Enjoy warm or room temperature.

Notes

*I think everyone needs to try making this quick puff pastry for themselves because its so easy- but store-bought puff would work too! :) Recipe adapted from King Arthur Flour
