Turnovers are such a popular breakfast pastry, it's hard to imagine breakfast without them. Always a crowd pleaser, you can do this in a wide variety of flavors: just pick the one your mom likes the best. For this, unless you're really a glutton for punishment, I wouldn't even bother with making puff pastry from scratch. Especially when when there are quality puff pastry sheets in your supermarket freezer. Not to mention high quality pie fillings that make perfect turnover fillings.
To make the turnovers, follow the preparation instructions on the package. Cut the dough into squares (four inches is a good size) and brush two of the edges (that come together to form a corner) with a little egg wash. Place a spoonful of whatever filling you want into the center (a little goes a long way), fold the dough over and seal the edges. Bake according to the puff pastry package directions. If you want, sprinkle the top of the turnover with sugar before baking or dust them with powdered sugar when they're cooled down after baking.
