Easy Apple Turnover Recipe with Puff Pastry
It’s apple season, but lately, I’ve noticed apple recipes being glossed over. One minute it’s watermelon and zucchini and seemingly overnight pumpkin recipes take over. And I’m guilty of doing it. Whoops. These easy turnovers give apples their proper place back in the fall spotlight. These puff pastry apple turnovers are tender, flaky, and buttery with a caramel apple filling. They taste like they’re from a bakery but use one of my favorite kitchen shortcuts, puff pastry. Simply boil apples, butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon together and that becomes the turnover filling. Add the apple turnover filling to squares of thawed puff pastry, seal, and crimp, and you’re nearly ready to bake off the turnovers.
