Blueberry Turnovers – Flakey pastry dough is filled with gooey homemade blueberry filling. How to make Blueberry Turnovers First you’ll need to make the blueberry preserves. Heat blueberries on the stovetop along with some lemon juice and sugar until they release their juices. Cut puff pastry into 6 equal squares. Distribute filling evenly in the center of each square. Brush edges of the dough before folding over into a triangle shape and pinch the edges closed with a fork.
Brush the tops of the triangles with more egg wash and sprinkle tops with sugar. Preheat oven according to puff pastry’s manufacturer’s instructions and bake for 15-20 minutes or until light golden brown. Whisk confectioner’s sugar, vanilla and cream or milk together until smooth. The unbaked blueberry turnovers can be frozen. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze until frozen. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer bag or airtight container and you may freeze them for up to three months.
The turnovers can be baked directly from the freezer. Adjust baking time by a few minutes, as needed. You may use fresh or frozen blueberries in this turnover recipe. I only like to use frozen because blueberries aren’t always in season.
Can I use a different type of berry to make turnovers? You could also make these with fresh raspberries or blackberries, using the same recipe. Heat berries, sugar and lemon juice on the stovetop in a medium-sized saucepan on low heat for abut ten minutes or until the berries start releasing their juices, stirring frequently. Take your puff pastry sheet and cut it into 6 equal squares. Whisk egg and water together in a small bowl and brush on the edges of the dough before folding over into a triangle shape and pinching the edges closed with a fork.
Prepare glaze while they are cooling. Blueberry Turnovers will stay fresh for up to 3 days stored in an airtight container at room temperature. To crisp them up again, place in a toaster oven for a few minutes and they are good as new! Blueberries are my favorite and these are PACKED! You can’t go wrong with a good turnover!
I’m allergic to blueberries, but I think I could easily adapt with blackberries or cherries, no? I love the blueberries, but am thinking that you could sub most any fruit! Oh my, do those turnovers ever look good! I’m wishing that some of them were going to be a part of our Mother’s Day brunch tomorrow.
