pear in puff pastry

Ingredients

filo dough (ready made) 3 slice
Williams pear 1 can
apricots 80 gram (dried)
walnuts 60 gram
sugar 50 gram
egg 1
egg yolk 1
milk 2 tablespoon

Preparation

  1. Defrost the ready-made filo dough / puff pastry.
  2. Preheat the oven to 200C.
  3. Leave the canned pears (halved) to drain.
  4. For the filling, finely chop the apricots and walnuts, then, in a bowl, mix together with the sugar and the egg.
  5. Cut the slices of puff pastry into halve, then roll out to squares of approx. 14 x 14cm. Place a pear half on each puff pastry square. Fill each pear half with a teaspoon of the apricot and walnut mix. Form the puff pastry into little 'ships' (so that the pears are contained, but not covered by the pastry), then place the puff pastry squares on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  6. Mix together the egg yolk and milk, and brush the pastry.
  7. Bake off for 15 minutes, until light brown.
  8. Serving suggestionServe hot, with vanilla ice cream.
