How To Make Blueberry Turnovers With Pie Crust
Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F. Roll out the two pie crusts and cut 3-4 circles from each using a large cookie cutter. Place a tablespoon or two of blueberry pie filling in the center of each circle.
Fold the dough over the filling and press to seal the edges. Beat an egg in a small bowl and brush it over each turnover.
Bake blueberry turnovers for about 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Allow them to cool before serving.
You can serve them as is or add icing to the turnovers. To make the icing, add one tablespoon of milk to half a cup of powdered sugar. Mix until all the lumps have dissolved. If the mixture is still pretty thick, add a dash of milk.
Use a spoon to drizzle the glaze over the blueberry pastries. Wait a few minutes for the glaze to harden before serving. These easy turnovers go perfectly with a cup of coffee or tea. They are a sweet way to start or end a day.

Tip 2: Use cold dough, which is easier to handle and results in flakier turnovers.
Tip 3: Don't overfill the turnovers. Too much filling can cause them to burst open during baking.
