Ingredients

1 pound puff pastry, thawed
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, for dusting
3 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced into 1/3-inch cubes
2 1/4 teaspoons Butter Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon Gravenstein Apple White Balsamic Vinegar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 teaspoon water

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the thawed puff pastry. Dust the top and bottom with flour as needed so the dough does not stick.
Cut the puff pastry into 8 even squares.
In a small saucepan, add the Butter Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil and diced apples. Cook over medium heat until the apples begin to soften.
Add the light brown sugar, cinnamon, Gravenstein Apple White Balsamic Vinegar, and salt. Cook for a few minutes, until the mixture starts to thicken.
Remove the apple filling from the heat and let it cool completely.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash.
Place a couple tablespoons of the cooled apple filling on one half of each puff pastry square.
Brush the edges of the pastry with egg wash. Fold the other half over the filling to form a triangle.
Use a fork to seal the edges of each turnover.
Cut 2 or 3 small slits in the top of each turnover to allow steam to escape.
Brush the tops of the turnovers with egg wash.
Move the turnovers to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 10–15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Let cool slightly before serving.
