Homemade Cherry Turnovers

📝 Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare Pastry:
    Roll out puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut into squares (about 4×4 inches).
  3. Add Filling:
    Place 1–2 tablespoons of cherry filling in the center of each square.
  4. Fold & Seal:
    Fold each square diagonally into a triangle. Press edges with a fork to seal.
  5. Egg Wash:
    Whisk egg with water. Brush the tops of the turnovers. Sprinkle sugar on top if desired.
  6. Bake:
    Bake for 18–22 minutes, until golden brown and puffed.
  7. Cool & Serve:
    Let cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar before serving for a sweet touch.

Tips:

  • You can make a quick glaze with powdered sugar and a little milk for extra sweetness.
  • These turnovers can also be made with other fruits like apple, blueberry, or peach.
