Exciting Story:

The first time I made Easy Golden Peach Turnovers, it was a sunny afternoon, and I had a craving for something sweet and fruity.

Why This Easy Golden Peach Turnovers?

• Deliciously Simple: With just a few ingredients and minimal prep time, these turnovers are easy to make.
• Perfectly Flaky: The buttery pastry creates a flaky texture that pairs beautifully with the sweet peach filling.
• Versatile Dessert: Great for serving at gatherings, family dinners, or as a quick snack!

How to Make Easy Golden Peach Turnovers

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix well to coat the peaches evenly.
3. Roll Out the Pastry: If using puff pastry, roll it out on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. If using pie crusts, roll out the crusts to about 1/8-inch thickness.
4. Cut and Fill: Cut the pastry into squares (about 4×4 inches). Spoon a generous amount of the peach filling onto one half of each square, leaving space around the edges.
5. Seal the Turnovers: Fold the pastry over the filling to form a triangle. Press the edges together to seal, and crimp with a fork for extra security.
6. Egg Wash: Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush the tops of the turnovers with the egg wash for a golden finish.
7. Bake: Place the turnovers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
8. Serve: Once baked, allow them to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar (if desired). Enjoy your Easy Golden Peach Turnovers warm or at room temperature!

Tips

• Use Fresh Peaches: Fresh peaches provide the best flavor, but you can use canned or frozen peaches if fresh ones are not available.
• Adjust Sweetness: Feel free to adjust the sugar in the filling according to the sweetness of the peaches.

Substitutions and Variations

• Different Fruits: Substitute peaches with other fruits like apples, berries, or cherries for a variation.
• Spice it Up: Add a pinch of nutmeg or allspice for extra flavor in the filling.

Make a Healthier Version

• Use whole wheat puff pastry or a healthier pie crust to reduce calories.
• Reduce the sugar in the filling or use a sugar substitute.
