Provided by Kelsey Nixon

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 sheet (1/2 a 17.3-ounce package) all-butter frozen puff pastry, thawed
3 cups fruit, nuts and/or cheese (ideal for roasting)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon or other spices
1/4 cup warmed honey, if desired
Puff Pastry Variations, recipes follow

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease with nonstick cooking spray.;
  • Sprinkle the cutting board with flour. Roll-out the creases.;
  • Unfold the pastry onto parchment paper. Using a fork, pierce a 1/2-inch border around the edge of the puff pastry. Prick the center of the pastry as well, about 10 times all over.
  • Arrange the fruit, nuts, and cheese on top of the pastry in a uniform manner, avoiding the border. Brush the fruit with the melted butter and top with the cinnamon and sugar. Bake 15 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and beginning to puff.
  • If desired, brush the honey over the fruit and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Serve warm with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
  • Puff Pastry Variations:
  • Apricot Plum Tart: Cut 2 plums and apricots into 1/4-inch thick slices. Arrange on top of puff pastry and brush with melted apricot preserves rather than honey.
  • Rhubarb Tart: Thinly slice 8-ounces rhubarb stalks on the diagonal and marinate in 1 cup orange juice and 1/2 cup sugar for 10 minutes. Strain the rhubarb, reserving the juices. Arrange the rhubarb slices on top of the puff pastry. Sprinkle with white sugar. While the pastry bakes, reduce the rhubarb juices until it becomes a syrupy glaze. When the pastry finishes, brush the pastry with the glaze.
  • Pear, Pecan and Blue Cheese Tart: Slice 3 cups Bartlett pears and place on the puff pastry. Top with 1/2 cup chopped pecans. After brushing on the honey, top with 1/3 cup blue cheese crumbles.

1 sheet puff pastry, 9x9 in (23x23 cm)
6 bananas
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 stick
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).

  • Add the bananas to the pan and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
  • Turn the bananas to fully coat them with the caramel, then remove from the pan. Reserve the caramel.
  • Grease the cake pan. Arrange the bananas on the bottom of the pan. Pour over the caramel sauce.
  • Cover the bananas with the circle of puff pastry and ensure the edges are tucked into the pan.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your tartlets will be.
  • Toast the chestnut flour: Toasting the chestnut flour enhances its flavor and gives it a nutty aroma.
  • Work quickly with the puff pastry: Puff pastry is a delicate dough, so it's important to work with it quickly to prevent it from becoming warm and sticky.
  • Chill the tartlets before baking: Chilling the tartlets before baking helps the dough to set and prevents it from shrinking too much in the oven.
  • Don't overbake the tartlets: The tartlets are done baking when the pastry is golden brown and the filling is set.

These banana chestnut tartlets are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
