This week Sarah looks at Pear and hazelnut tarts
Ingredients
1 sheet store-bought frozen puff pastry, just thawed
2 tablespoons Nutella
410g can pear slices in juice, drained, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon Demerara sugar
1 tablespoon hazelnuts, coarsely chopped
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced). Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
2. Cut the pastry into 4 squares and arrange the pastry squares on the prepared tray. Divide the Nutella evenly between the four squares, spreading it to leave a 2cm border. Arrange the pear slices on top and sprinkle with the sugar and hazelnuts. Fold in the pastry edges to form a border.
3. Bake the tarts for 10–12 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden. Serve with a drizzle of Nutella on top accompanied by a slice of fresh pear if desired.
