What do I need?
- 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and diced
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 2 sheets ready rolled puff pastry
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tbsp sugar
How do I make it?

- Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Combine apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice in a bowl, and mix well.
- Cut each sheet of pastry into four squares.
- Place some apple mixture into the centre of each square of pastry and fold diagonally to make triangles.
- Crimp edges of the pastry with a fork and place turnovers on the baking tray leaving 5-centimetres between them to allow for the pastry to puff up during cooking.
- Using a sharp knife cut a small slit in the top of each turnover to allow steam to escape. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and puffed.
