1 tablespoon water

1/2 cup frozen blueberries, thawed

2 sheets puff pastry

1/2 cup mascarpone

1.In a medium saucepan, combine apple, sugar and water. Cook on medium for 3-4 minutes, until just softened. Add berries and set aside to cool.

4.Transfer to tray and brush with a little mascarpone. Sprinkle with extra sugar. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until puffed and golden.

5.In a small bowl, beat vanilla sugar into remaining mascarpone. Serve warm turnovers with vanilla mascarpone and a dusting of icing sugar.
