Upside-down Puff Pastry

 Brilliantly simple dessert!

Picture from ABC news

This past weekend was such a blessing to this old grandma! I had a few grandchildren and my great grandchild spend the weekend, then a big family dinner with my daughter and her hubby along with another granddaughter! Pretty awesome, huh? Loved every minute!

My grandson, Jordan, came with ingredients to make a dessert he spotted on TikTok, and we made this beautifully simple pastry together. Simple? Yes! Delicious? Yes, yes!

We used raspberries, canned peaches and thinly sliced apples, but the best part was baking and spending time with this wonderful young man! 

Ingredients:

1 box of frozen puff pastry, thawed overnight in fridge

Fruit slices (your choice)

Honey

1 egg, beaten

Parchment paper

Baking sheet with sides (the honey and juices spilled onto the oven)

Preheat oven to 400'F. 

Divide pastry dough into 12 rectangular pieces, keep in fridge until ready to use.

Make 6 rectangle shapes with a little of the honey onto the parchment paper lined baking sheet. Six pastry squares fit nicely per baking sheet.

Arrange your fruit onto the honey and cover with a sheet of puff pastry. Press down around the sides of the fruit.

Brush the egg wash over the top of the pastry. 

Bake for 17-20 minutes or until pastry is puffy and golden brown.

Let cool a few minutes, then flip them over onto a cooling rack. 

Makes 12 pastries.

A Tip from Grammy:

-Drizzle a glaze over top when cooled or powdered sugar.

-Use a savory filling, like caramelized onions flavored with balsamic vinegar and a little honey.

-Switch up the fruits

-Pepperoni and cheese with a little sauce (quick pizza)
