Puff Pastry Pear Tartlets (4 Ingredients)
Description
Puff Pastry Pear Tartlets (4 Ingredients) use simple components—pears, puff pastry, egg wash, and sugar—to create a delicate dessert. Thinly sliced pears rest atop squares of puff pastry, leaving edges visible for a rise and crispness during baking. The egg wash helps the sugar adhere and browns the tartlets, while baking at 415°F crisps the pastry and caramelizes the sugar. The pears soften without losing shape, creating a tender yet structured topping over the flaky crust. These tartlets showcase natural fruit sweetness highlighted by a sugar crust for added texture.
The tartlets are best served warm directly from the oven to enjoy the crisp pastry and sugary surface before they lose crispness. Their modest ingredients and straightforward assembly make them convenient for casual or simple dessert needs, letting the pear's flavor shine through minimal preparation.
