recipe

  • Step 1
    Peel & small dice the apples.
  • Step 2
    Melt a dab of butter in a pan, over medium heat. Add the apples & a tablespoon of sugar, if you wish. Stir & cook for 2 min.
  • Step 3
    Cover & leave to stew for 8-10 min, over low heat, until golden & lightly caramelised. Once tender, mash the apples with a fork or potato-masher, until you obtain the rough consistency of applesauce. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Step 4
    Meanwhile, prepare the egg wash. In a bowl, add: the egg yolk & 1 tablespoon of water. Whisk to combine.
  • Step 5
    Once the compote has fully cooled down, spread the puff pastry out & lightly brush it with half of the egg wash.
  • Step 6
    Cut the dough into 4 equal parts & fill each quarter with the compote, leaving at least a 1/2" border. Bring the edges together & crimp tightly along the edges with a fork to seal. Cut a few slits into the dough (this allows steam to escape while baking)
  • Step 7
    Lightly brush the apple turnovers with the remaining egg wash & top with a sprinkle of cane sugar. Transfer them to the air fryer basket with the rack & air fry for 8-10 min at 360°F.
  • Step 8
    Once golden & crispy, remove the apple turnovers from the air fryer & serve with some vanilla ice-cream, if you wish. Enjoy!
