Ingredients

1 cup fresh blueberries
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 sheet puff pastry thawed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons milk
1 cup powdered sugar plus more, to taste

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the blueberries, the sugar, the water, and the cornstarch and stir to combine.
Bring the blueberry mixture to a simmer and cook, while stirring frequently, until thickened, about 10-15 minutes.
Transfer the blueberry mixture from the heat and allow it to cool.
Cut the puff pastry into 6 equally sized rectangles.
Roll each of the puff pastry rectangles into even squares and transfer the squares to the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out evenly.
Add 1-2 tablespoons of the blueberry mixture to the center of each of the squares.
Fold each of the puff pastry squares in half diagonally over the blueberry mixture to make a triangle, pressing the edges slightly to seal.
Pierce the top of each of the puff pastry triangles with a fork to allow steam to escape.
Bake until the turnovers are lightly browned, about 15-20 minutes.
Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack to cool.
In a small bowl, add the lemon juice and the milk.
Gradually add 1 cup of the powdered sugar to the lemon mixture, while whisking. The glaze should be thin enough to drizzle, but you may need to add the extra powdered sugar, a little at a time, to achieve the desired consistency.
Drizzle the glaze over the turnovers and allow it to harden.
Serve.
