Make these delicious strawberry turnovers using fresh strawberries and puff pastry. Easy, delicious, and perfect for any occasion. Enjoy warm with ice cream or whipped cream!
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix the strawberries, sugar, and cornstarch. Let it sit for about 10 minutes.
Roll out your puff pastry and cut into squares.
Spoon a portion of the strawberry mixture onto each square, then fold over to form a triangle. Press the edges together to seal, then crimp with a fork.
Brush each turnover with the beaten egg.
Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Ensure your puff pastry is cold but not frozen for best results. A cold dough will puff up more when baked.
When sealing the turnovers, make sure they're well sealed to prevent any leakage of the filling.
Avoid overfilling the turnovers. Too much filling could cause the turnovers to burst open during baking.
Bake the turnovers on the middle rack of your oven for even cooking.
Let the turnovers cool slightly before serving. This will make them easier to handle and the flavors more developed.
