Ingredients
- 500 grams Gluten-free puff pastry
- 4 medium Apples
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 1 tablespoon Gluten-free flour
Directions
Step 1
Peel, core, and dice the apples into small pieces.
Step 2
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced apples, sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and slightly caramelized.
Step 3
Stir in the vanilla extract and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let the apple filling cool completely.
Step 4
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 5
Lightly dust your work surface with gluten-free flour. Roll out the gluten-free puff pastry to about 1/8-inch thickness. Using a round cutter or a bowl about 4-6 inches in diameter, cut out circles from the pastry dough.
Step 6
Place a spoonful of the cooled apple filling slightly off-center on each pastry circle. Fold the pastry over to create a semi-circle and press the edges together to seal.
Step 7
Mix the egg yolk and milk in a small bowl to create an egg wash. Brush each turnover with the egg wash to ensure a golden finish.
Step 8
Place the turnovers on the prepared baking sheet and make a small slit on the top of each one to allow steam to escape.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
