In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water until well combined. Set aside.
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Melt the butter completely. Add the diced apples and cook until they soften for about 5-6 minutes while stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in brown sugar, cinnamon powder, and nutmeg powder until well combined. Stir in cornstarch slurry until the sauce thickens. Turn off the heat and let it cool completely before using. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 400F/200°C. Line a baking pan with a baking mat.
Lightly dust the working surface lightly with flour. Roll over a sheet of thawed puff pastry to make a square about 10x10-inch/25x25 cm wide.
Divide the sheet into 3 lengthwise down with a knife. Divide the sheet again in the middle widthwise. Now you have 6 smaller squares.
Divide half of the apple filling evenly on three squares, leaving the edges uncovered. Brush the edges with an egg wash. Place the remaining three squares over the apples encasing the filling and press the edges with fingers to seal.
Press the edges with a fork. Transfer the sealed puff pastry to the lined baking pan and continue with the remaining puff pastry sheet until you get 6 assembled pastries.
Brush the top of each puff pastry with an egg wash. Cut three slits into the top of the assembled pastries with a knife.
Bake for 18-22 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Cool them on a cooling rack.
