Instructions
- Remove puff pastry from freezer, thaw in fridge (up to 3 hours). While pastry is thawing make apple pie filling.
- To make filling: Cook apple chunks, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg over medium heat until apples are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Set aside to cool.
- To make turnovers: Preheat oven to 350. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove one sheet of thawed pastry from package, unfold on work surface.
- Using fold marks as a guide, cut pastry into 9 squares, approx 3x3".
- Lay one square of pastry on parchment paper. Spoon 1 tbsp of cooled apple pie mix on the pastry. Fold top edge of pastry down to meet the bottom edge, making a rectangle. Press edges closed with a fork. Repeat until all pastry is used (both sheets).
- Brush pastries with whisked egg wash. Sprinkle raw sugar on top. Make 3 vent slits in top of pastry. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm with ice cream!
