Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.  Drain fruit in a colander.  Cut a piece of parchment paper large enough to line a large, rimmed baking sheet.  Lightly flour parchment, unfold pastry onto parchment and roll to a 12x12-inch square. Cut into six 4x6-inch rectangles (2 rows of 3).  Slide parchment on baking sheet and separate pastry creating space between each piece. With a sharp paring knife, cut a shallow rectangle into the pastry 1/2 inch from the edges.  This will rise to form a crust (do not cut all the way through the pastry). Refrigerate until ready to assemble and bake tarts.

  2. Working quickly to keep pastry cold, lightly brush pastry with egg.  For each tart, staying within the cut lines of the rectangle, sprinkle 1 Tbsp. brown sugar and a pinch (about 1/16 tsp.) cinnamon. Place 1/2 Tbsp. butter in the center and top with 1 or 2 pineapple slices or 3 or 4 slices of peach or pear. 

    • Bake 25 to 30 minutes until pastry is deep golden brown.  Serve warm, as is, or topped with ice cream or whipped cream.

    VARIATIONS

    • Roll, cut and brush pastry with egg as directed. 
    • Honey Brie Pear Tarts: For each tart, place a thin slice of brie (about 1/4 inch thick and 3 inches long) along the center of the pastry. Top brie with a sprinkle of black pepper, 2 or 3 small fresh thyme sprigs and 3 or 4 pear slices. Bake.  Drizzle with honey before serving.
    • Peach Pecan Tarts: For each tart, add brown sugar, cinnamon and butter as directed, then top with 1 to 2 Tbsp. chopped pecans and 3 or 4 peach slices. Bake.

    TIPS

    • Cut any thicker peach or pear slices in half lengthwise so all cook evenly.
    • Recipe can be doubled to serve 12.  Double ingredients and use 2 baking sheets.
    • Refrigerate any leftover fruit and enjoy as a snack or for breakfast with oatmeal or yogurt.
    • Save drained fruit juice to add to seltzer water, vinaigrettes, fruit salad, cake mix batter, iced tea, lemonade, hot cereal, stir fry sauce or BBQ sauce.
