Ingredients

400 g	puff pastry or flaky pastry
	For filling A:
120 g	raspberry jam
	For filling B:
175 g	diced cooking apple
30 g	sugar
	For filling C:
2 medium	bananas, peeled, halved lengthwise and again horizontally
250 ml	creme patissiere
1 medium	egg, beaten with a little milk or water, as wash
	caster sugar, for dusting

Instructions

Roll out the dough to between 1/10 and 1/8 inch thick, 2.5-3mm.

Use a 4-inch fluted pastry cutter to cut out 8 rounds. Using a rolling pin, thin out the rounds from the centre to the bottom and then again to the top so that the length is increased by about one third.

Lightly oil two baking trays or tins.

To fill: use ONE filling only and place the filling just below the centre of each turnover. The amounts of filling provided are each sufficient for 8 turnovers.

Place two teaspoons of jam (Filling A) OR 1-2 tablespoons of apple and a sprinkling of sugar (Filling B) OR a piece of banana and about 3 tablespoons of creme patissiere (Filling C).

Dampen the edges of the pastry on both sides and bring the top down so that the edges meet. Press all around to seal.

Brush tops with egg wash and sprinkle with caster sugar. Allow to rest, loosely covered with cling film, for about 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to Gas Mark 7, 220°C, 425°F.

Bake for a few minutes until risen and golden brown. Allow to cool before serving.
