Strawberry Turnovers Recipe
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Carefully unroll both refrigerated pie crusts. Using a cookie cutter, cut out 3-4 circles from each pie crust. Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of the sweet strawberry filling onto each dough circle.
Fold the top half over the filling and press the edges to seal them. Using a sharp knife, cut three small slits into each hand pie so that any steam can escape while they bake. Beat an egg in a small bowl and brush egg wash over the turnovers.
Place the turnovers on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a rack for a few minutes before eating.
Tips for Making Pie Crust Turnovers
Tip 1: To avoid having the filling leak out of the crust, make sure you press the edges together tightly. You can dip your fingers in water and run it along the edges before pressing for a good seal.
Tip 2: For that perfect golden-brown finish, don't skip the egg wash. If you’re out of eggs, a light brush of milk can work for a glossy look.
Tip 3: Let the turnovers cool for a few minutes before eating. This lets the filling set slightly, making them easier to enjoy without making a mess.
