APPLE TURNOVERS
Not sure how to make apple turnovers? Give this traditional recipe a try. It makes a dessert that's both tender and flaky, with apple pie-like filling and a thin, white glaze. I freeze the extra turnovers and warm them up in the microwave. They're great with coffee. -Dorothy Bayes, Sardis, Ohio

APPLE -PEAR TURNOVERS
These are a wonderful breakfast treat from Williams-Sonoma, and pretty easy too. Please don't be intimidated by the lengthy directions. When I make these I don't usually re-roll out my puff pastry sheet and instead just make four smaller turnovers. The filling on these also makes a really delicious pie.

Steps:

- Using a rolling pin, and beginning at the center of the pastry, roll out to the far side. Then roll from the center toward you.

Steps:
- Put the Bramley apple, sugar and cinnamon in a small pan with 1 tbsp water. Cover with a lid and simmer over a low heat for 10-15 mins until the apple breaks down and turns into a compote.
- Stir in the butter and the Gala apple and cook for a further 5 mins, uncovered, until the Gala apple is just soft but retaining its shape, and any excess water has evaporated to make a thick compote around the Gala chunks. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
- Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Unravel the puff pastry sheet out on a work surface, and cut into 4 even rectangles. Divide the apple filling to one side of each of the puff pastry rectangles, leaving a 1cm border. Brush the border with milk and fold over the empty side of pastry over the filling and crimp together. Brush with more milk and sprinkle over the sugar. Make a small steam hole in the middle of the turnovers.
- Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 mins until golden and puffed up. Leave to cool for 10 mins on a wire rack (the filling will be molten when it first comes out the oven) before serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or serve at room temperature. Keep for 2 days in an airtight container.

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to slice the apples and pears thinly and evenly. This will help them cook evenly in the turnovers.
- If you don't have a pastry brush, you can use your finger to brush the edges of the turnovers with water. This will help them seal properly.
- Be careful not to overfill the turnovers, or they will burst open in the oven.
- Bake the turnovers until they are golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Let the turnovers cool for a few minutes before serving. This will make them easier to handle and prevent the filling from running out.
