Preheat the oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thaw the gluten-free puff pastry sheets according to package instructions.
In a medium bowl, combine the mixed fruits, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir until the fruits are evenly coated and the mixture is well combined.
Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases.
Cut each sheet into 6 equal-sized rectangles. You should have a total of 12 rectangles.
Place a heaping tablespoon of the fruit mixture onto one half of each rectangle, leaving a border around the edges.
Brush the edges of each pastry with a little milk to help seal the pastries together.
Fold the pastry over the fruit to enclose it, and press the edges to seal with a fork.
Transfer the pastries to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.
Brush the tops of the pastries with the remaining milk to help with browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack.
Optionally, dust with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
