How to Make Blueberry Turnovers
- Lightly flour a clean work surface. Gently unfold each sheet of thawed puff pastry.
- Roll out each puff pastry sheet to a 12-inch square. If needed, patch any tears with additional pastry.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the blueberry preserves, cornstarch, brown sugar, and lemon zest until smooth.
- Gently fold in the blueberries and vanilla extract.
- Cover the filling and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the cornstarch to thicken.
- Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each puff pastry sheet into four 6-inch squares.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.
- Place a pastry square on the prepared surface. Brush the edges with egg wash, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
- Place 2 heaping tablespoons of the blueberry filling in the center of each pastry square.
- Brush the remaining edges with egg wash. Fold the pastry square in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing firmly to seal the edges.
- Crimp the edges with a fork to ensure a tight seal, and create a decorative edge.
- Transfer the turnovers to the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
- Brush the turnovers with the remaining egg wash and sprinkle generously with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the turnovers are golden brown and cooked through. If the edges are browning too quickly, tent loosely with foil.
- Let the turnovers cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
