➡️ As with most jam turnover recipes, this recipe for apricot puff pastry turnovers is very easy to prepare, does not require many ingredients and the working time is extremely short. As a result, you can make homemade jam turnovers whenever you want to eat something sweet and you don’t have much time.
➡️ Jam pastry turnovers can be prepared with different types of jam, the most popular being apricot and plum jam. The homemade pastry product tastes very good even if you fill it with pear jam or quince jam.
➡️ There are many similar recipes that present various more complicated forms of pastry dough. You can try to make them if you have previous baking experience. But if you do not have much experience, I recommend you follow my recipe and make simple pastry turnovers filled with jam, with a quite basic shape. Their taste will be delicious even without fancy shapes that you can’t make perfect!
➡️ Jam pastry turnovers can be served simply or with coffee or tea. This is how most people eat them. However, a glass of milk makes them even tastier, so I often eat them at breakfast with milk. Try this way to serve jam turnovers and your day will be completely different!
➡️ There are people who claim that it is not worth the effort to make such a dessert at home when it is found at a low price in every corner shop. That’s a point of view, but if you will use homemade apricot jam to make turnovers, I assure you they will taste much better compared to those bought from the store!
➡️ Others say that puff pastry bought from the store is not as good as homemade dough. This is a misconception because it takes a long time to prepare homemade puff pastry and the result is completely the same. As a result, do not waste your time with such unnecessary things and buy puff pastry from the supermarket. Your ready-made puff pastry cakes will be just perfect!
➡️ I recommend eating the jam pastry turnovers on the same day you prepare them because the puff pastry dries pretty much until the next day.
