Easy apple turnovers, with a crispy crust and in the inside warm apple with cinnamon and raisins. A treat for any moment.
Sometimes you crave for something sweet. And you want it (almost) instant. Or you want to serve a sweet bake with your tea. Then you certainly must take a look at these apple turnovers.
The apple is flavored with raisins and cinnamon and folded in puff pastry. That pastry is brushed with egg and sugar and cinnamon are sprinkled on top. That way your topping will caramelize beautiful when baked. After 10 minutes baking time your whole house will smell Wonderfull and then you've still got to wait impatiently for another 10 minutes.
And then the first bite. You bite through the crispy crust and arrive at the sweet apple filling. The juicy warm apple, sweet currants and a hint of cinnamon fill your mouth on every bite. This is almost to good to be true.
Because ...
- The side of the puff pastry which is covered with plastic foil should be your top side. This side sticks better when folded.
- Brush the top with the egg for more shine. The sugar cinnamon topping will stick better because of this.
- By pressing the sides of the pastry with a fork, the filling won't drip out of the apple turnovers. And it also looks very beautiful.
Substitutes
- You can substitute apple by pear for pear turnovers.
- You can substitute raisins with smal cut sizes of apricot, for a tropical hint.
Delicious
with
- Add 1 tablespoon of finely chopped walnut for a bite.
Storage
- You can freeze the apple turnovers before you bake them in the oven. Wrap each apple turnover individually and freeze for a maximum of 2 weeks. Don't thaw them before baking, but bake them for an extra 5 minutes.
- You can store the apple turnovers after baking 1 day at room temperature in a paper bag. They're even better when they are warmed just before eating them.
- Don't freeze them in the refrigerator. Because of the humidity the structure will change and that's not really delicious
