You will love these oven-baked Quick Pear Pastries made with just a few simple ingredients and a sheet of store-bought puff pastry. Each tender-crispy pastry is filled with sweet and flavorful pear filling and dusted with powdered sugar for a finishing touch. This recipe makes 4 perfect pear pastries, but you can easily double the ingredients if you are serving for a crowd!
This recipe is super simple and easy to make. A few tips for best results: Completely thaw the puff pastry until pliable but still cold. To do so, leave the frozen puff pastry in the fridge overnight rather than leaving it at room temperature. To ensure a good puff, place the formed pastries in the fridge for 20 minutes before baking.
To make the Quick Pear Pastries, you will need the following ingredients:
In a pan over medium heat, melt 30 grams butter and add the chopped pears, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of salt and stir to combine. Cook until the pears are tender.
Preheat the oven to 350 ºF.
Cut the puff pastry sheet into four equal rectangles. Using a pizza or pastry cutter, make thin cuts in one half of each pastry rectangle, leaving a border.
Brush the uncut part of the pastry with milk. Fold the pastry, leaving the cuts facing downwards.
To assemble the pastries, place a spoonful of the pear filling onto the center of each folded pastry.
Fold the top corners of the pastry over the filling towards the center, forming a triangle.
Place the pastries on a baking sheet and brush each with beaten egg.
Bake for 30 minutes or until golden.
Dust the pear pastries with powdered sugar just before serving. Enjoy!
