Ingredients You’ll Need
Here’s what you’ll need to make these Halloween apple turnovers with Biscoff:
- Puff pastry– Ready-rolled puff pastry makes this recipe quick and easy. Many store-bought puff pastries are naturally vegan if you’d like to make these vegan friendly.
- Biscoff spread– Adds a warm, spiced caramel flavour that pairs beautifully with apple.
- Apples– Tart varieties like Granny Smith or Braeburn balance the sweetness of the Biscoff.
- Cinnamon & brown sugar– Enhance the autumnal flavour and help caramelise the apple filling.
- Egg (or plant-based milk)– For brushing the pastry to achieve that golden finish.
- White Chocolate (optional)– Add a spooky finishing touch that makes them perfect for Halloween.
Step-By-Step Instructions
- Preheat the oven– Set to 200°C / 180°C fan / Gas Mark 7 and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Prepare the apple filling– Peel, core, and dice your apples. Gently cook them in a pan with a little brown sugar and cinnamon until soft but not mushy. Let cool.
- Cut the pastry– Roll out the puff pastry and cut into 8 squares.
- Add the filling– Spread a spoonful of Biscoff onto the centre of 4 squares, then add a spoonful of cooked apples.
- Seal the turnovers– Place the plain pastry squares on top of the filled squares and seal the edges with a fork.
- Bake– Brush with egg wash or plant-based milk and cut 3 lines into the pastry (as shown below). Sprinkle with granulated sugar and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
- Decorate & serve– Once cooled, pipe on the word “BOO!” or drizzle as a mummy and add edible eyes for a spooky finishing touch.
Tips & Tricks for Perfect Turnovers
- Don’t overfill– Too much filling can leak out while baking.
- Seal well– Use a fork to crimp edges so the turnovers stay intact.
- Chill the pastry– If the pastry warms up too much while assembling, pop it in the fridge for 5–10 minutes before baking.
- Add texture– Sprinkle with a little granulated or demerara sugar before baking for extra crunch.
- Make ahead– Assemble and freeze the turnovers before baking. Cook straight from frozen, adding an extra 5 minutes to the baking time.

Biscoff & Apple Turnovers
Ingredients
- 2 Apples (Peeled, cored and cut into 3cm/1¼in chunks).
- 50g Light Brown Sugar
- 1+1/2 Tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 30g Unsalted Butter
- 2 Tsp Lemon Juice
- 1 Tbsp Cornflour
- 4 Tbsp Biscoff Spread
- 1 Roll of Ready Made Puff Pastry
- 2 tbsp Granulated Sugar or Demerara Sugar
- 200g White Chocolate (Decoration).
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7 and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Place the apples, light brown sugar, cinnamon, butter and lemon juice in a saucepan and cook for 10 minutes until softened slightly. Transfer to a bowl and leave to cool. Once cool, stir in the cornflour.
- Unroll the pastry on its baking paper and use a sharp knife to cut 8 equal-sized squares. Fill 4 squares with 1 table spoon of biscoff spread and spread it out evenly. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the apple filling, leaving a 1cm/½in border around the outside.
- Brush the border with the beaten egg and place an unfilled pastry layer over the top of the filled pastry. Press down the edges to seal the filling and crimp with a fork all around.
- Brush the squares with the remaining beaten egg and sprinkle the demerara sugar over the top.
- Place the pastries on a lined baking tray, spacing them well apart. Make a small incision with a knife in the top of each turnover to allow steam to escape. Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
- Once baked allow to cool completely. Melt your white chocolate, add to a piping bag and pipe on the word "BOO!" onto your puff pastries for a spooky Halloween treat!
Notes
- Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven to re-crisp.
