Apple turnovers

I decided to make a special breakfast for the family this week; they usually have to wait for the Weekend to get home made goodies for breakfast :-)
This apple turnover was just the right thing to make; it's very simple and is ready in no time. The original recipe is french and is called "Chaussons aux pommes" but I know that there is a variation of this pastry in many countries and nobody can claim ownership of the idea of stuffing puff pastry with sweet delicious apples (It's just a great idea that a lot of people had in different parts of the world LOL)

Directions:

Thaw 2 puff pastry sheets following the package directions
Peel and cut 4 big apples into thin slices about 1/4 inch thick (I used golden and delicious)

In a sautee pan melt 2 tbsp of butter with 2 tbsp of sugar and 2 pinches of cinnamon
Add the apple slices to the melted butter and sugar and stir from time to time until the apples are soft
.
In a bowl, mix a small mascarponi cheese container (8 oz) with 1 tbsp of apricot jam.
Cut the puff pastry into equal squares, cut 3 diagonal openings into half of the squares only

 Place 1 tsp of the cheese mixture in the center of the uncut square, top with some apples (leave enough space on the edges)
Wet the edges of each square with some egg wash (egg yolk+water) and top with another square (with cuts) and seal the edges by pressing a fork all around.

Brush some egg wash all over the surface and place in a 375 degree oven for 30 minutes.

Enjoy!
