Ingredients

• 2 sheets Frozen puff pastry sheets
• 1 cup Apricot preserves
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Water
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets until they are even and smooth.

Step 3

Cut each puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares.

Step 4

Place about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of apricot preserves in the center of each square. Avoid overfilling to prevent leaking during baking.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.

Step 6

Lightly brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg wash.

Step 7

Fold the squares into triangles by bringing one corner diagonally over the filling to meet the opposite corner and press the edges to seal. Use the tines of a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative seal.

Step 8

Transfer the turnovers onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each pastry.

Step 9

Brush the tops of the turnovers with the remaining egg wash, then sprinkle each with a small pinch of granulated sugar.

Step 10

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the turnovers are puffed and golden brown.

Step 11

Allow the turnovers to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
