  4. Adjust the oven rack to the lower third position and preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

  5. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

  6. Unroll the puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface. Cut each into 4 squares.

  7. Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of the apple mixture onto the center of each square.

  8. Fold each over into a triangle shape and crimp the edges with a fork to seal. Some apple juices may leak out.

  9. Lightly brush the top of each turnover with the beaten egg. Cut 2 or 3 small steam vents in the tops.
