Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Apple Turnovers.
Step 1
Begin by assembling all the necessary ingredients for your delightful apple turnovers.
Step 2
In a spacious bowl, mix fresh lemon juice with four cups of water, then immerse the sliced apples in this solution to keep them from browning.
Step 3
Next, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 4
Once melted, drain the apples and add them to the skillet, cooking for about two minutes while stirring occasionally.
Step 5
Sprinkle in brown sugar and ground cinnamon, continuing to cook for another two minutes, stirring to combine the flavors.
Step 6
In a separate small bowl, blend cornstarch with one tablespoon of water until smooth, then pour this mixture into the skillet, stirring well.
Step 7
Allow it to cook for an additional minute until the sauce thickens, then remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 8
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 9
Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheets, mending any cracks by pressing them together.
Step 10
Cut each sheet into squares, then divide those squares into four smaller pieces.
Step 11
Place a spoonful of the apple mixture in the center of each small square.
Step 12
Fold the pastry over to create a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal them.
Step 13
Arrange the turnovers on a baking sheet, ensuring there’s about an inch of space between each.
Step 14
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until they rise and turn a lovely golden brown.
Step 15
Once baked, allow them to cool completely before glazing.
Step 16
For the glaze, whisk together confectioners' sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl, adjusting the consistency with more sugar or milk as needed.
Step 17
Drizzle this sweet glaze over the cooled turnovers just before serving.
Step 18
Indulge in the warm, comforting flavors of your homemade apple turnovers, a treat that’s sure to delight!.
