Ingredients
-
½ (17.3 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
-
¼ cup unsalted butter
-
⅓ cup brown sugar
-
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
1 pinch ground nutmeg
-
¼ cup maple syrup
-
4 firm pears, peeled, cored, and halved, or more as needed
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
-
Roll puff pastry out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness; place in refrigerator.
-
Melt butter in a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat; add brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook and stir until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Stir in maple syrup; cook and stir until begins to bubble. Remove skillet from heat.
-
Place 1 pear half, cut-side up, into center of skillet. Cut remaining pear halves in half; arrange pear quarters around center pear, cut-sides up.
-
Place skillet over medium-low heat; cook pears, basting with syrup mixture, until pears begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
-
Place puff pastry over pears, tucking edges around pears in skillet.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes. Place a serving plate over skillet; carefully invert to release tart onto plate (skillet will still be hot). Serve warm.
