Mini Apple Turnovers - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 tbsp butter
4 None granny smith apples, peeled, cored, finely chopped
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
2/3 cup raisins
1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted
2 None sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 None large egg, lightly beaten
None None brown sugar, to sprinkle (optional)

Preparation

Melt the butter in a large pan on medium heat. Add the apple and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 mins until golden. Stir in the maple syrup, sugar and cinnamon. Cook, stirring, for 4-5 mins until the liquid thickens.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Stir in the raisins and almonds, then set aside for 15 mins to cool, then chill until the mixture is cold.
Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Cut each pastry sheet into 12 even-sized squares.
Spoon 2 teaspoons of the apple mixture onto one half of each pastry square. Brush the edges with egg, then fold the pastry over the filling to form a triangle, pressing the edges firmly with a fork to seal. Brush with the remaining egg. Sprinkle with a little brown sugar, if you like.
Bake for 15-20 mins until golden. Allow to cool on trays, then serve.
