I LOVE puff pastry and I    love broccoli cheddar soup so these turnovers were obviously the perfect match for me! The rich creamy cheddar broccoli filling is perfect with the flaky buttery puff pastry and I  could legit not stop eating these.

They’re quite simple to whip up if you keep some puff pastry on hand- which is a great freezer staple! Be sure to serve these hot because its the best way to enjoy them and if you’re making them for a crowd you could easily make the filling a day before and then just bring it to room temperature before you bake them off!

Hope you all enjoy this recipe! Happy Eating <3

Prep

Cook

Total

Yield 6-8 Turnovers

Ingredients

1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets  and steamed until fork tender

4 oz cream cheese, softened

2 cloves fresh garlic, grated

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1/4 cup scallions, thinly sliced

1 small red bell pepper finely diced

2 cups Tillamook Farmstyle Thick Cut Sharp Cheddar

1 box Puff Pastry Sheets

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 Degrees.
  2. Thaw the frozen puff pastry until it is soft and bendable.
  3. Roughly chop the steamed broccoli into small bite size pieces and set aside to let it cool.
  4. In a small bowl add the cream cheese with the rest of the ingredients except the cheese and combine well.
  5. Gently fold the broccoli into the cream cheese being careful not to over mix and break the broccoli up too much. Gently fold in the cheese.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, lay out the large puff pastry sheet and cut it into 4 squares. Place 2-3 tbsp of the broccoli cheddar mix into the middle of each square and fold over into a triangle/turn over shape. 
  7. Use a fork to press down a long the edges and seal the puff pastry. Do this until you have 8 turnovers.
  8. Mix one egg +1 tbsp water and whisk it well. Use a brush and lightly top each turnover with the egg wash,
  9. Gently pierce the top of the puff pastry a couple of times with a fork to help let steam release and place on a lightly greased baking tray and place in the oven. Let it cook for about 15-20 minutes until puff pastry is golden and cooked all the way through.
  10. Serve hot!!
