To prepare, simply place the frozen turnovers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Allow a little space between each one as they will expand slightly during baking. Bake in a preheated oven according to the package directions until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. You can brush the tops with a little milk or egg wash before baking for an extra sheen. Let them cool slightly before serving to avoid burning your mouth on the hot filling.
