Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Combine the lemon and 4 cups water in a large bowl. Place the sliced apples in the water to keep them from browning.
Step 3
Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until turnovers are puffed and lightly browned. Cool completely before glazing.
Step 4
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain water from apples, and place them into the hot skillet. Cook and stir for about 2 minutes.
Step 5
Add brown sugar, and cinnamon, and cook, stirring, for 2 more minutes.
Step 6
Stir together cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water. Pour into the skillet, and mix well. Cook for another minute, or until sauce has thickened. Remove from heat to cool slightly.
Step 7
Unfold puff pastry sheets, and repair any cracks by pressing them back together. Trim each sheet into a square.
Step 8
Then cut each larger square into 4 smaller squares. Spoon apples onto the center of each squares. Fold over from corner to corner into a triangle shape, and press edges together to seal.
Step 9
Place turnovers on a baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between them.
Step 10
To make the glaze, mix together the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla in a small bowl. Adjust the thickness by adding more sugar or milk if necessary.
