Quick Fruit Tart

Ingredients

  • 1 x ready rolled puff pastry
  • 1 x egg, beaten
  • 6-8 stone fruit – nectarines, peaches, apricots – whatever you fancy, sliced into wedges
  • 4 tsp honey

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C, fan180C, gas mark 6.

  2. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment if your tray isn’t very smooth.

  3. Unroll the puff pastry. Cut in half horizontally, then in half vertically, then cut section in half to create 8 evenly sized pieces.

  4. Brush the pastry with the beaten egg.

  5. Lay the sliced fruit onto the baking sheet, overlapping slightly, to a size just smaller than the pastry pieces. Repeat so you have 8 piles of fruit.

  6. Drizzle a little honey over the top of each pile of fruit, then lay a piece of pastry over the top, egg washed side down.

  7. Press the pastry down gently over the fruit, then brush the pastry with the rest of the egg wash.

  8. Place in the oven to bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

  9. All to cool for 5 minutes before flipping them over and serving.
