Strawberry Turnovers

Strawberry Turnovers tuck a thick, sweet strawberry filling inside flaky puff pastry, then finish with a simple icing drizzle. They start with a sheet of store-bought puff pastry, so the prep stays quick and easy. This recipe makes six golden, fruit-filled turnovers, ready for breakfast or dessert.

Instructions

Make the Filling

  • Preheat the oven to 400º Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the strawberries, granulated sugar, and cornstarch to a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring, for 5 to 7 minutes, until the mixture bubbles and thickens. Set aside to cool.

Fill and Fold

  • Roll the thawed puff pastry out on a lightly floured surface to about 10 by 15 inches, then cut it into 6 squares.
  • Spoon a heaping tablespoon of filling onto the center of each square. Fold one corner over to the opposite corner to make a triangle.
  • Press the edges together with a fork to seal. Cut a few small slits in the top of each turnover, then brush the tops with the melted butter.

Bake and Ice

  • Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until the turnovers puff up and turn golden.
  • While the turnovers bake, stir together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Let the turnovers cool slightly, then drizzle with the icing and serve.

Notes

PUFF PASTRY

One sheet from a 17.3-ounce box is all you need. Thaw it 30 to 40 minutes so it unfolds without cracking.

COOL THE FILLING

Let the filling cool 15 to 20 minutes before filling the pastry, so the pastry bakes up flaky.

MAKE 4 INSTEAD

For 4 larger turnovers, cut the sheet into 4 squares and skip most of the rolling.
