Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 °F
  • Prepare your puff pastry. Thaw a sheet of frozen puff pastry according to the package instructions. Let sit at room temperature until pliable, then cut into six rectangles.
    1 sheet puff pastry
  • Cut each pear in half, then slice thinly from the middle section outward. Use a Mandoline slicer if you have one, and try to get each slice as thin as you can.
    2 Bartlett pears
  • Transfer pears to bowl, and pour Cheerwine syrup over the slices. Use your hands to mix the slices into the syrup and make sure they are each well coated.
    2 tbsp Cheerwine Syrup
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and lay out your puff pastry rectangles. Using each piece as a guide, remove the piece, and then add a teaspoon of honey in its place directly on the parchment paper. Lay 2-3 paper-thin slices of pear on top of the honey, and then replace the puff pastry rectangle on top. Press the pastry down using your fingers to create a seal over the fruit. Repeat with each of the remaining pieces of pastry.
    6 tsp honey
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until pastry edges are golden brown and crisp. Remove from oven, and let tray rest for five minutes before flipping tarts over with a wide, flat metal spatula.
  • Sprinkle with lavender and serve.
    2 tsp culinary lavender
