Today I am sharing a really easy pear tart to serve with your coffee. I tried the puff pastry a few weeks back when I made chicken pot pie, and I was eager to try it with a dessert.
It is such a pretty way to present a treat to go with your coffee for autumn. I put them on a plate on the counter and put a glass cake dome over them and say I am "coffee shopping my house."
Quick Pear Tart
Servings 6-8
Ingredients:
1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed
3 ripe pears, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 plus tablespoons honey for drizzling
powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400°F. (200°C) Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or baking Silpat sheet. Roll puff pastry out to fit your baking sheet. (This would be a standard cooking baking sheet.) Prick the pastry with a fork to prevent over puffing.
Toss 1/4 of a pear in the lemon juice and then place in a plate and thinly slice for the tart. Arrange the quarter of the pear on each rectangle of the puff pastry overlapping the slices for presentation. Brush the melted butter over the pears. Shake a little cinnamon over each rectangle of pear slices. Bake 20 minutes, until the desired browning occurs. Drizzle honey on each rectangle over the pears and dust with sifted powdered sugar.
May refrigerate up to 3 days covered.
