If they are left out the butter in the pastry will melt and you won’t get that nice, flaky pastry. Place any prepared turnovers that you will not be baking immediately into the refrigerator until you are ready.Don’t worry, that chewy bit is delicious. It is normal, however, for a bit of filling to leak out. Make sure you crimp the edges well so you don’t lose too much filling.If the puff pastry sheets are still frozen they will crack as you unfold them. Make sure the puff pastry is completely thawed, but still cold when you begin.If you want to make these more like traditional hand pies, you can swap the puff pastry for frozen pie pastry. Allow the turnovers to cool then drizzle with icing.Remove the baked turnovers from the fryer and place on a cooling rack.This will help ensure the puff pastry doesn’t melt and will give you flakier pastries. Pro Tip – Refrigerate any turnovers that did not fit in the air fryer while you wait for the first batch to bake. If they are not quite done you can put them back in the air fryer for a couple of minutes. The turnovers are done when they are puffed, golden and slightly crispy on the top. If your basket tends to stick you can use a piece of parchment paper under the turnovers. Poke a few holes in the top of the turnovers then place them in the air fryer basket.Make sure you allow your puff pastry to thaw in the refrigerator before you try to unfold it or it will crack when you try to work with it.
