Cheddar, Apple and Turkey Empanadas

Directions

Heat butter in large skillet over medium heat.

Add turkey, onions and garlic. Cook, until turkey is browned or about 5 to 7 minutes.

Add apples and cook for 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat.

Mix in cheeses, cilantro and jalapeño. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Preheat oven to (425°F | 220°C).

Cut each puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares (you will have 8 squares with 2 sheets of pastry). Add filling mixture equally to the center of each pastry square.

Brush edges with egg wash. Fold into a triangle & pinch edges close with tines of a fork to seal. Place triangles on a parchment lined baking sheet.

Place in oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until pastry is golden brown and flaky.

Serve with sour cream.
