Ingredients

1 cup diced bartlett pear 1 pear peeled and cored
2 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/16 teaspoon nutmeg
1/16 teaspoon cloves
1 sheet puff pastry thawed
1 egg
turbinado sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400.
Cut the pear into small pieces and toss together with the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and extract.
Roll out the puff pastry so it’s just a tad larger and forms a square.
Cut it into four squares and brush the sides with egg wash.
Spoon 1/4 of the pear mixture into each square.
Fold each square corner to corner so it forms a triangle and pinch the dough together to seal.
Place on a baking sheet.
Brush the tops of each triangle with the egg wash.
Sprinkle each turnover with turbinado/coarse sugar.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 to 20 minutes, until golden.
