Ingredients to make Easy Mango Turnovers recipe
- 4 ripe mangos, sliced
- 4 tablespoons honey (plus more if needed)
- ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Puff pastry dough (store-bought, thawed if frozen)
- Optional egg wash:
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon milk
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
1. Preheat and Prepare
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Flavor the Mangos
- Drizzle honey directly onto the parchment-lined tray.
- Arrange mango slices on top, then drizzle more honey over them.
- Sprinkle the mangos with cinnamon, sugar, and cardamom.
3. Wrap in Puff Pastry
- Roll out the puff pastry dough slightly to smooth it.
- Cut into squares or rectangles and place a portion of the mango mixture onto each piece.
- Fold the pastry over to enclose the filling and press the edges to seal.
- If you have leftover mangos, repeat with more dough.
4. Add an Egg Wash (Optional)
- For a shiny, golden finish, whisk together one egg with a teaspoon of milk.
- Brush the tops of each turnover lightly with the egg wash.
5. Bake
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
6. Serve
- Let the turnovers cool for a few minutes.
- Flip them carefully with a spatula to reveal the caramelized mango underneath.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
