Easy Apple Turnovers Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 cups water
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 4 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and sliced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 (17.25 ounce) package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Combine water, lemon juice, and sliced apples in a large bowl for the apple filling.
2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain apples, add to skillet, and cook briefly. Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon until fragrant.
3. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water. Pour into the apple mixture and stir until the filling thickens. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Gently unfold puff pastry sheets, repairing any tears. Cut each sheet into a square.
5. Divide each square into four smaller squares. Place a spoonful of the apple filling in the center. Fold each square into a triangle and seal the edges.
6. Arrange the apple turnovers on a baking sheet, spacing them apart. Bake until golden brown and puffed, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely.
7. In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make a glaze. Adjust consistency as needed; drizzle over the cooled apple turnovers.
