Dairy-Free Appel Flappen (Apple Turnovers)

Ingredients

• 1 package Vegan puff pastry
• 3 Apples, peeled and diced
• 1/4 cup Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Vegan butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon Turbinado sugar (for topping)

Instructions

1. 1Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Peel and dice the 3 Apples into small, even pieces. In a medium bowl, combine the diced 3 Apples with 1/4 cup Brown sugar, 1 teaspoon Cinnamon, 1 tablespoon Lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon Cornstarch; stir well until all apple pieces are evenly coated.
2. 2Carefully unroll or unfold the 1 package Vegan puff pastry onto a clean, dry work surface. Using a knife, cut the pastry into 6 equal squares.
3. 3Place a generous spoonful of the apple filling (from Step 1) into the center of each of the 6 pastry squares. Fold each square diagonally over the filling to form a triangle, then use the tines of a fork to firmly crimp and seal all three edges of each pastry triangle.
4. 4In a small, microwave-safe bowl or saucepan, melt the 2 tablespoons Vegan butter. Brush the tops of all 6 assembled turnovers with the melted 2 tablespoons Vegan butter, then evenly sprinkle the 1 tablespoon Turbinado sugar over them.
5. 5Carefully transfer the prepared turnovers to the lined baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated 400°F (200°C) oven, until the pastry is visibly puffed up and golden brown.
6. 6Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the appel flappen to cool slightly on the sheet before serving.
