Air Fryer Apple Turnovers

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!
