APPLE TURNOVERS

apple turnovers

Makes about 20 mini

Ingredients:
ready-made puff pastry

Filling:
3 green apples
4 tbsps of brown sugar
a handful of raisins
3 tbsps of lemon juice
1 tsp of cinnamon powder
1 tbsp of butter

Egg Wash:
1 egg + 2 tbsps of milk, beaten

Method:
1) Combined all the filling ingredients except cinnamon in a pan and cook until the apples are tender and the filling is almost dry. Add in cinnamon and set it aside to cool down.

2) On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pastry dough thinly and cut into round shape with cookie cutter or any shapes that you like.

3) Spoon the cooled apple filling onto the pastry and lightly moisten the edges of the rounds with water and fold the dough over the filling to form semicircular turnovers. Press down on the edges to seal.

4) Preheat oven to 180 degreesC. Brush turnovers with egg wash and bake for 20 min or until golden brown. Let cool on rack.
