Blueberry Turnovers
- Prep Time 30 min
- Total 50 min
- Servings 12
- Ingredients 11
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon grated orange peel
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Dash of ground allspice
- 2 sheets frozen puff pastry (from 17.3-oz package), thawed
- 6 tablespoons firm butter, each tablespoon cut into 4 pieces
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
Instructions
-
Step1Adjust oven rack to lower third of oven. Heat oven to 400°F. Cover 2 large cookie sheets with cooking parchment paper; set aside.
-
Step2In medium bowl, mix blueberries, brown sugar, cornstarch, orange peel, cinnamon and allspice. Let stand 20 to 30 minutes to allow the juices to exude.
-
Step3Place 1 sheet puff pastry on work surface lightly dusted with flour. (Keep other sheet covered in refrigerator.) Use rolling pin to roll pastry sheet into 12x9-inch rectangle. Use pizza cutter to cut dough into 6 squares (don’t worry if squares are uneven).
-
Step4Stir blueberry mixture well; spoon about 2 rounded tablespoons filling onto center of each pastry square, leaving about 1 inch around edges. (Don’t add more filling; it will ooze out during baking and burn onto cookie sheet.) Place 2 pieces butter on each mound of filling.
-
Step5In small bowl, mix egg yolks and milk with fork. Use pastry brush or your fingertip to paint edges of each square with egg mixture. Fold each square over, corner to corner, to form a triangle. Use your fingertip to lightly press edges shut. Use fork to crimp edges. Move turnovers to a cookie sheet.
-
Step6Paint tops of turnovers with additional egg mixture and sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon granulated sugar. Cut one or two 1-inch steam vents on top of each turnover using tip of sharp knife. While the first 6 turnovers bake, repeat with remaining pastry sheet and filling.
-
Step7Bake turnovers 15 minutes or until flaky and golden. (Check after 10 minutes because they brown quickly. If they look like they may burn, cover with foil and continue baking.) Remove from oven and cool 5 minutes. Remove turnovers from parchment and place on wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
