Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 package puff pastry sheets
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Thaw the puff pastry sheets at room temperature for about 30 minutes, ensuring they are pliable but still cold.
- In a medium bowl, gently mix fresh raspberries, sugar, and cornstarch until the raspberries are evenly coated. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the juices to develop.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unfold the puff pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 3 equal squares, creating 6 total squares.
- Place approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the raspberry mixture in the center of each pastry square, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully fold each square diagonally to create a triangle, pressing the edges together with a fork to seal the filling inside.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg and create an egg wash by whisking it until smooth.
- Brush the top of each turnover with the egg wash, which will help create a golden, shiny crust.
- Cut small slits on the top of each turnover to allow steam to escape during baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the turnovers are puffed and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
- Dust the turnovers with powdered sugar just before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
- Serve warm and enjoy your Razzel Dazzel Raspberry Turnovers!
Tips
- Always keep your puff pastry cold but pliable - this ensures those perfect, crispy layers that make these turnovers heavenly.
- Don't overfill your pastry squares; leaving a small border helps create a proper seal and prevents filling leakage.
- For an extra professional touch, use a pastry brush to apply the egg wash evenly, creating that beautiful golden-brown sheen.
- The small slits on top aren't just decorative - they're crucial for releasing steam and preventing your turnovers from becoming soggy.
- Allow the turnovers to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar to prevent the sugar from melting immediately.
- These are best served warm, so time your baking to coincide with when you want to serve them for maximum deliciousness.
- If you have leftovers, store in an airtight container and reheat briefly in the oven to restore their crispy texture.
