Ingredients

1 package Frozen Puff Pastry Sheet, Thawed (I Suggest Dufour)
1 whole Large Baking Apple (I Used A Granny Smith), Peeled, Cored, Diced
3 Tablespoons Chopped Walnuts Or Pecans
1/4 cups Light Brown Sugar
1/2 teaspoons Apple Pie Spice (If You Cant Find This, You Can Use Cinnamon)
1/2 teaspoons Cornstarch
1/4 cups Unsweetened Applesauce
1/4 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 whole Egg, Lightly Beaten
1 teaspoon Milk

Directions

1

Place oven rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2

Line a baking sheet with parchment or Silpat.
3

In a medium bowl, mix together apples and walnuts with sugar, apple pie spice, and corn starch, making sure the fruit and nuts are well coated.
4

Mix in the applesauce and vanilla.
5

In a small bowl, mix the beaten egg with a teaspoon of milk.
6

Set aside.
7

Unfold the thawed pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface.
8

Roll out pastry to a rectangle and cut into 5x5-inch or 4x4-inch squares.
9

I was able to get about 12 squares.
10

I used a pizza cutter to help in cutting the squares.
11

Place about a tablespoon of the apple mixture on each of the squares, leaving a 1-inch border.
12

Fold each pastry into a triangle, enclosing the filling, and crimping edges with a fork.
13

Brush the tops of the pastries with the egg wash. Cut 2 small steam vents in the top of each turnover.
14

Place pastries on prepared pan and bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes, or until puffed and golden.
15

Cool turnovers to warm before serving.

Enjoy and Happy Fall!
