How To Make apple turnovers
-
Step 1Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add apples and cook for 15 minutes or until they have begun to soften. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg, and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until fully softened. Stir water and corn starch together and add to the apples. Cook until slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
-
Step 2Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
-
Step 3Puff pastry will need to be thawed for 20-30 minutes prior to use. Do not thaw too long (see instructions on box),
-
Step 4Unfold each sheet of puff pastry and place it on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 4 equal squares. Place the squares on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet. Top each with a heaping tablespoon or so of apple mixture and fold over and press edges to seal, creating a triangle. Crimp edges with a fork dipped in flour. Beat egg until frothy. Brush on a light coat of egg wash with a pastry brush.
-
Step 5Bake at 400 degrees F for 18 - 20 minutes or until turnovers are puffed and golden brown. Let turnovers cool on a wire rack.

Step 6Whisk milk and powdered sugar until smooth and drizzle over cooled turnovers.
