Ingredients
  

  • 1 package puff pastry sheets thawed
  • 1 can cherry pie filling
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 egg beaten
  • Granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Set the temperature of the oven to 375 F. Put parchment paper or lightly grease a baking sheet to avoid sticking.
  • If the pie filling is too liquidy, it can be thickened by adding a tablespoon of cornstarch in a little pot over medium heat. Stir the mixture until it thickens, then remove it from the heat and let it cool completely.
  • Spread out the defrosted puff pastry on a surface with little flour. You can use a rolling pin to make each sheet a bit bigger and smooth without any wrinlkles.  
  • Now, cut each pastry puff into rectangles or squares that depends on your preference and the size of turnover you want.
  • Add a spoonful of cherry filling onto one half of each rectangle or square, make sure to leave a border around the edges.  
  • Fold the other half of the pastry over the filling like a sandwich. Use a folk to press the edges together to seal them tightly.
  • Put the turnovers on the baking sheet by leaving some space between them.
  • After baking, brush the top of turnovers with beaten egg for a shiny look. You can also add some sugar for an extra crunch and sweetness.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, until the turnovers are golden brown and puffed. It may take around 18-22 minutes.   
  • Take it out from the oven to cool it slightly before serving.
  • It’s time to serve the cherry turnover.
