Ingredients

  • 1 pound frozen puff pastry thawed
  • 21 oz apple pie filling
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Roll the puff pastry sheets into a 12x12 square, then cut each into six rectangles with a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
  • Add about 2 tablespoons of apple pie filling to one end of each rectangle, then fold the other end over the filling.
  • Crimp the edges of the folded turnover with a fork. Poke a few holes, or cut a few slits in the top of each turnover.
  • In a small bowl, beat the egg, then lightly brush over the turnovers.
  • Mix the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl, then sprinkle over the turnovers.
  • Place the turnovers in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
    Place any turnovers that don't fit on a baking sheet and place in the refrigerator until ready to bake.
  • Place the basket in the air fryer and coot at 320°F for 15-17 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed, golden brown, and sounds crispy if you lightly rub a knife over the surface.
  • Remove from the air fryer and move the turnovers to a cooling rack.

Notes

Puff pastry may come in either rolled sheets, or blocks, depending on brand.  If your puff pastry comes in sheets, you can simply unroll them and cut them into rectangles.  If it comes in blocks, you will need to use a rolling pin to roll it into a 12x12 square, or the size recommended on the package.
