There is something special about eating a fantastic dessert. I spend so much time cooking when it comes time to making a dessert I want the recipe to be quick and easy and this triple berry turnover recipe is exactly that! Inspiration for this turnover recipe came from a recent visit I made to a local French Bakery. I ordered their daily special, it was a berry turnover which was bursting with berries and had this crispy crust that was so flaky and buttery.
In fact it was so delicious I just had to try and bake something similar for my own family. To cut back on the time I used prepared pie crusts and if I do say so myself these triple berry turnovers are super scrumptious. To boost the flavor I added fresh grated orange zest and fresh squeezed orange juice, the fresh orange flavor really gives this recipe an extra zing! I made two batches because my kids ate the first batch in a blink of eye. I am quite sure your family will love them too!

Using a thin sharp knife make 6 – 8 narrow slits on the tops of each turnover with a knife so the berries have room to breathe while baking. This will help prevent the seams from bursting open while baking. Brush each turnover with remaining egg wash and sprinkle with large baking sugar crystals.
Place turnovers onto parchment paper lined cookie sheets and bake for 15–20 minutes or until the turnovers are a light golden brown. Allow turnovers to cool slightly before serving. Triple Berry Turnovers are great served as a dessert or as a morning pastry with coffee.
That looks delicious!
