Ingredients
Cherry Turnovers
- 1 Box 1 Pound puff pastry sheets, 1 large or 2 small sheets
- 1 Cup cherry pie filling
- 1 Large egg
- 2 tsps water
Icing Drizzle
- ½ Cup powdered sugar
- 1 Tbsps milk or cream
Instructions
Cherry Turnovers
- In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg with the water and set aside.
- Unroll the thawed puff pastry sheet(s) and cut into 8 rectangles. My 1 pound sheet was approximately 15×13 inches and I cut it into 8, but some sheets are only half this size.
- Place approximately 2 tablespoons of filling onto one end of each rectangle.
- Brush the egg wash on the 3 edges of the pastry around the filling.
- Fold the other end of the rectangle over the filling and press all 3 edges with a fork to seal. Poke a few holes in the top of each turnover with the fork. Brush tops of turnovers with the egg wash.
- Place the turnovers in the basket leaving a small amount of space between them.
- Set the air fryer to 320°F for 17 minutes. Turnovers are done when the are puffed, golden and feel crisp on the outside. If not quite done, put them back in the air fryer for 1-2 minutes.
- Remove the baked turnovers from the fryer and move them to a cooling rack. Proceed to bake second batch if you couldn't fit them all in your fryer.
- Once the turnovers are cool, drizzle with icing and serve.
Icing Drizzle
- In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar with the milk or cream until sugar is dizzolved and icing is smooth and pourable.
Notes
If your air fryer has multiple settings you will select the "air fry" setting for this recipe.
If your air fryer basket tends to stick you can line it with a piece of parchment paper before adding the turnovers.
If you are doing 2 batches, place any turnovers that did not fit in the air fryer on a parchment lined baking sheet and refrigerate until ready to bake.
