Photo: Berry Berry Turnovers Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 1/2 cups (about 1 1/2 pounds) fresh strawberries, quartered and destemmed
- 4 1/2 cups (about 1 1/2 pounds) fresh blueberries, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 4 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1 package frozen puff pastry, thawed
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- 1 egg, beaten
- Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a medium pot, combine the first 6 ingredients and mix well. Cook on medium heat until tender and syrupy; about 10 minutes. Allow to cool in refrigerator for 1 hour.
Roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle on a well-floured surface and cut into 8 squares. Place onto a sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Brush the edges of the square with the beaten egg. Place about 2 1/2 tablespoons of filling in the center of the square, leaving 1-inch on all sides clear. Repeat until all the puff pastry is used. Fold the turnover into a triangle and using a fork, crimp along the edges making sure to enclose all the filling in the pastry. Brush egg wash on top of each triangle.
Bake the turnovers until puffy and golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

WOW!!! You outdid yourselves once again, Neelys! How incredibly easy and delicious!
I also do not understand why one or two reviewers marked this down just because there's too much filling for pastry. Buy 2 boxes! Use it as an ice cream topping, or on top of short cake, pound cake, or brownies! This is absolutely a 5 star recipe, and so very easy to make - that's the important thing to note.

Great easy recipe. Yes it makes to much sauce but you can use this as an ice cream topping or freeze it and use again. I also spread cream cheese on the pastry then the sauce and sealed it. Very good this way. Also cooked it around 12-13 minutes. Looks like you did a lot of work, but so simple!

This is soooo easy and fantastic! I have made it twice now, once with frozen mixed berries and then with frozen blueberries. I can't even imagine how good this will be with FRESH berries soon to be in the market this summer. So little work for such great taste.
