How to Make Easy Strawberry Turnovers

– frozen puff pastry – fresh or frozen strawberries – granulated sugar – cornstarch – salt – fresh lemon juice – egg – confectioner's sugar – milk – vanilla extract

Recipe Ingredients

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Recipe Instructions

Make the strawberry filling: In a small pot over medium heat, add the strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, water, and salt. Stir to combine and cook for 3 minutes, until bubbly and slightly thickened.

Recipe Instructions

Remove from heat, add fresh lemon juice, and stir to combine. Let mixture cool while you prepare the puff pastry (or place it in the fridge for faster cooling).

Recipe Instructions

Assemble turnovers: Onto a lightly floured surface, unroll thawed puff pastry. Using a sharp knife, cut each pastry sheet  into 4 equal-sized squares (you will have 8 total). Place 1-2 tablespoons of strawberry filling in center of each square.

Recipe Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg wash. Use a pastry brush to brush egg wash along the ½" edge of each pastry square. Fold opposite pastry corners together to form a triangle. Use a fork to crimp the edges together by pressing down gently.

Recipe Instructions

Use the same fork to pierce the top of each pastry to allow steam to escape. Transfer turnovers to prepared baking sheet and brush each turnover with egg wash. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until pastry is golden brown.
