Ingredients

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries, divided
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons butter
1 package (17.3 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon 2% milk

Directions

In a large saucepan, combine 1/2 cup blueberries, sugar, cornstarch and lemon zest. Mash well with a fork. Bring to a boil over low heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir in butter and remaining blueberries.
Unfold puff pastry. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each pastry sheet into a 12-in. square. Cut each into four squares. Spoon 3 tablespoons of filling into the center of each square; fold diagonally in half and press edges to seal.
Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Beat egg and water; brush over pastry.
Bake at 450° for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Combine confectioners' sugar and milk; drizzle over turnovers. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Super easy to make. I used frozen blueberries we had picked last summer. They were fabulous.

Delicious taste but way too runny. Used frozen berries but next time I make this I'll double the berries.

Wonderful! Have made this several times with a few tweaks based on what I have on hand for the filling. Turns out great every time!
