Prep Time: 15 minutesCook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
INGRÉDIENTS- 4 stalks of rhubarb
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 18 oz puff pastry (I prefer Trader Joe's all-butter pastry)
- 1 egg (or just the egg white)
- 1 teaspoon Swedish sugar (optional or Demerara sugar or raw sugar)
Equipment- 1 baking sheet
- 1 baking mat Silicone baking mold
PRÉPARATIONPrepare the rhubarb filling- Place the diced rhubarb in a saucepan with the sugar and lemon juice and cook until tender. If the mixture is too liquid, let it reduce slightly before removing from the heat and letting it cool.
Fill and bake the rhubarb turnovers- Preheat the oven to 400F (200C)
- Roll out the puff pastry to form a square, then cut the square into four pieces.
- Place a heaped teaspoon of rhubarb in one corner of each square. Try not to get any on the edges, otherwise the pastry won't seal properly. It's okay if this happens, but try to avoid it. Moisten the edges of the pastry with your finger dipped in water, then fold the pastry over itself and press the edges together. Repeat for each pastry. Use the tines of a fork to press the edges and seal them completely. Brush with beaten egg (or egg white). Then, make a small slit in the top of each rhubarb pastry to allow steam to escape. (OPTIONAL: Sprinkle with Swedish sugar, Demerara sugar, or raw sugar.) Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack before serving.
Notes- I recommend preparing the rhubarb filling in advance.
- Repeat the dough steps to make 8 turnovers.
- SPECIAL CAKE: Whip heavy cream and fill each turnover.
- These turnovers freeze beautifully.
