Apple turnovers



Ingredients

55g soft brown sugar
25g butter
1 apple, cored, halved, thinly sliced
25g raisins
½ tsp ground cinnamon
Ready to roll puff pastry
1 free-range egg, beaten

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 220C or Gas mark 7.
2. Place the sugar and butter in a frying pan and melt . Add the apple, raisins and cinnamon and stir well 
3. Roll out the puff pastry and have a circle mould or you can cut into squars and do the triangle ones but i prefer the circle ones. Once rolled spoon the apple mixture into the centre of the pastry and fold over all the ends, into the centre covering the apple and press down the edges with a fork.
4. Brush the top of the pastry with egg. Place into the oven and bake for ten minutes, or until the pastry is   golden brown and puffed and leave to cool. Alternately you could always reopen the seal and add freshly whipped cream and also make a royal icing mixture to glaze the top of the turnover.
5. Dust the apple turnover with icing sugar and serve and enjoy!
