Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the apples, and cook for a few minutes while stirring frequently. Add the brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt and stir to coat apple pieces. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the apples are softened and become syrupy. Reduce the heat to low.

Step 3

Sprinkle in the cornstarch and stir until the juice boils and thickens, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl. Let cool for 15 minutes then refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.

Step 4

When the apples are chilled, roll each thawed puff pastry sheet out on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch square. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.

Step 5

In a small bowl, beat the egg and water together, then brush the edges of each square with the egg wash.

Step 6

Place a few tablespoons of filling in each square. Fold one point of the puff pastry over the filling to the opposite point, creating a triangle. Crimp and seal in the filling by pressing the lines of a fork along both straight edges. Brush the top with more egg wash and cut a few small slits in the top. Sprinkle with sugar, if desired.

Step 7

Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until the pastry is golden and puffed. Let cool for at least 15 minutes.

Step 8

In a small mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar and water and whisk until smooth. You can add a bit more water if the consistency needs to be thinned out. Drizzle over the warm turnovers and enjoy!
