Step 1
Turnovers:
Preheat oven to 425 and grease a baking sheet with butter. (I just used a silpat pan liner). Roll the pastry out very thinly on a floured work surface.
Cut out 9 even squares with a pizza cutter.
Place a good tablespoon of apple compote on each one.
Fold in half, into a triangle, moisten edges with a little water and press down to seal, forming a triangle
Place on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with egg yolk to glaze and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 30 minutes.
