Instructions
Preheat the oven to 220 °C (fan 200 °C/ 425 °F/ Gas 7) and line a baking sheet with baking paper.
Place the peeled and chopped apple in a large bowl and mix in the blackberries, light brown sugar and cinnamon.
1 Cooking Apple, 40 g Blackberries, 25 g Light Brown Sugar, ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
Use a saucer or cookie cutter to stamp out circles of the ready-rolled puff pastry. I used a cookie cutter that was 10cm diameter.
375 g Ready Rolled Puff Pastry
Place teaspoons of the apple mixture into the middle of each pastry circle then fold over to encase the filling.
Use a fork to seal the pastry edge then brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with demerara sugar.
1 Egg, 1 tablespoon Demerara Sugar
Notes
Keep pastry cold: This ensures the turnovers puff up nicely and stay flaky.
Don’t overfill: Too much fruit can make the turnovers soggy and cause filling to leak.
Use firm apples: Cooking apples like Bramley hold their shape and balance the sweetness of blackberries.
Baking from frozen: Turnovers can be frozen before or after baking. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes until golden and puffed.
