I saw this being made on sunrise television programme and just had to try it. These are so easy, and make a very nice dessert. I used fresh apples and they turned out fantastic. I dusted the tops with some cing sugar and served with cream, the family loved them.
Ingredients:
400 g pie apples
2 tablespoons caster sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons strawberry jam
sifted icing sugar, to decorate
Directions:
1. Place apples in a bowl with sugar and cinnamon. Mix well.
2. Cut pastry sheets into quarters.
3. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the apple mixture and 1 teaspoon jam onto one half of each pastry square.
4. Brush each square with a little of the egg around edge of pastry.
5. Fold over pastry to enclose filling, then pinch and fold edges to seal.
6. Place turnovers on oven trays lined with baking paper.
7. Brush tops with remaining egg.
8. Cook in a hot oven (200C) for 20 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown.
9. Sprinkle with some sifted icing sugar if desired.
10. The turnovers are best served warm.
