Fresh Peach & Orange Marmalade Turnovers | Cajun 911 Cuisine

breakfast dessert fruit
Fresh peach and orange marmalade turnovers made with puff pastry.

Adding orange marmalade to fresh peaches creates a deeper, brighter filling with a natural citrus glaze. Wrapped in golden puff pastry, these turnovers bake up fragrant, flaky, and irresistible. They feel both old-fashioned and elegant, making them perfect for brunch, dessert, or special occasions.

INGREDIENTS 

 

PEACH–MARMALADE FILLING

3 fresh peaches, peeled and diced

2 Tbsp butter

3 Tbsp granulated sugar

1–2 Tbsp brown sugar

2 Tbsp orange marmalade

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp vanilla extract

1–2 tsp lemon juice

Pinch salt

Optional pinch nutmeg

 

TURNOVERS

1 sheet puff pastry, thawed

1 egg

1 Tbsp water

 

OPTIONAL TOPPING AND SERVING

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make the Peach–Marmalade Filling

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, lemon juice, salt, and optional nutmeg. Cook 4–5 minutes until peaches soften. Stir in orange marmalade and cook 1–2 minutes more. Remove from heat and allow the filling to cool completely.

2. Prepare the Puff Pastry

Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut the puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

3. Fill and Seal

Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of cooled filling into the center of each square. Fold into triangles and crimp edges with a fork. Whisk egg and water together and brush over the pastry. Cut a small vent slit in the top. Sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.

4. Bake

Bake 15–20 minutes until golden, puffed, and flaky.

5. Serve

Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

 
 
SERVING IDEAS

NOTES

  • Orange marmalade brightens the filling and helps it thicken

  • Cooling the filling prevents soggy pastry

  • Substitute peaches with apples, pears, or berries
