Wild Blueberry Turnovers Picture New Recipe

Ingredients

1.5 cups (375 ml) fresh or frozen wild blueberries
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons maple syrup
8 sheets phyllo dough
4 tablespoons (60 ml) melted butter or oil
Topping: maple butter or caramel (optional)

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the wild blueberries with the cornstarch and maple syrup.
  3. On a work surface, place two sheets of phyllo dough on top of each other. Brush a thin layer of melted butter over the entire surface. Cut the phyllo dough in half lengthwise.
  4. Place about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of the wild blueberry mixture on one half, at the base. Fold the dough lengthwise. Using a brush, spread a thin layer of butter over the entire surface. Fold into successive triangles until you reach the end of the rectangle. You will end up with a triangle-shaped turnover. Brush with butter one last time.
  5. Place the turnovers on a baking sheet lined with reusable baking paper or parchment paper.
  6. Bake in the center of the oven for 15 minutes.
  7. Let cool, then drizzle with maple butter or caramel if desired.
