Description

Ingredients

• 6 medium apples like Cox or Royal Gala, peeled and cubed
• 100g | 3.5oz dried cranberries, finely diced
• 3 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp plain flour
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 teabags Taylors Spiced Apple Tea
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• small cube unsalted butter
• 2 packages ready rolled puff pastry
• 1 egg, lightly beaten with ½ tbsp water
• a little Demerara sugar
• 75g | 3oz icing (powdered) sugar to glaze (optional)

Directions

• Peel, core and cut the apples into small cubes. Place in a small pot together with the sugar, lemon juice, the contents of two teabags of Spiced Apple tea and the butter.
• Stir over low heat for 5 minutes until the apples are slightly softened. Drain and reserve any juices.
• Transfer the apple filling to a bowl to cool, add the cranberries and flour and mix together.
• Preheat the oven to 220C (430F). Line two heavy trays with baking paper.
• Lay your puff pastry on your worktop and cut out large (11cm/4.3in) circles with a pastry cutter.
• Place just under a tablespoon of filling in the centre of each pastry circle and use a brush to moisten the edges with the egg wash.
• Fold the pastry over to create a crescent and press to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
• Transfer to the prepared trays, brush with the egg wash and sprinkle with a little Demerara sugar.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until the pastry is golden.
• If you like, mix the icing sugar with a little of the reserved apple juices until you have a pourable glaze and drizzle over the turnovers.
