Apple Turnover is the perfect treat in this chilled weather. Flakey puff pastries stuffed with apple and coconut flakes spiked with warm cinnamon.
This Apple turnover recipe with a quick coffee glaze drizzled on top is so so addictive. The bittersweet glaze beautifully balances the flavours. The glaze is my latest favourite. This drizzle works like charm on cinnamon rolls too.
I can't stress enough how important is the coconut flakes and the bittersweet coffee glaze in this recipe. These two components make these Apple turnovers just amazing. If you like you can throw in some toasted nuts into the stuffing as well.
It was a long weekend for us because of Diwali. Cleaning, making snacks for friends, cooking up a feast for the family, bursting crackers and finally partying. It was so much fun, I really didn't want the holiday to get over. It was like a marathon in the kitchen for the last three days. Post-Diwali was seriously a day of rest for me. I just sat and watched Netflix.
But if you really know me, then you would know that I can't be away from the kitchen for too long.I really get impatient if I don't enter my kitchen for more than a day or two. So yesterday finally baked with the frozen puff pastries. These little turnovers are a perfect little way to indulge on a cold chilled evening. Paired with a steamy cup of coffee and a favourite book.
