Flaky, creamy and beautiful plum puff pastry tarts, with honey and a hint of vanilla. So simple and yet so delicious!
Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Course Dessert
Servings 9 pastries

Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry - thawed
  • 4 oz. cream cheese, softened - 113 grams
  • tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 medium plums - sliced
  • 1 large egg+1 tablespoon water - (egg wash)
  • sanding sugar - optional for topping

Instructions
 

  • Let the puff pastry thaw on the counter for about 30-40 minutes. It should still be cold but you should be able to unfold without breaking it.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, add in the cream cheese, honey and vanilla extract. Mix with a spoon or whisk until it's smooth.
  • Divide the dough into 9 squares (3 by 3 inches) with a pizza or pastry cutter. You can also use a sharp knife. Place the squares on the lined baking sheet.

  • Using a knife, score about ¼ inch border around the sides. Do not cut completely through the dough. This way the edges will puff up nicely, and the filling will not over flow.

  • Whisk the egg with one tablespoon of water and brush the sides of pastries.
  • Spread one tablespoon of cream cheese mixture in the center of each pastry. Top it with about 4 slices of plum. Sprinkle the tops and sides with sanding sugar if desired.
