Maple Pear Tarte Tatin

Ingredients

• frozen puff pastry (0.5 (17.3 ounce) package)
• unsalted butter (0.25 cup)
• brown sugar (0.33 cup)
• ground cinnamon (0.25 teaspoon)
• ground nutmeg (1 pinch)
• maple syrup (0.25 cup)
• firm pears (4 )

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Roll puff pastry out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness; place in refrigerator.
3. Melt butter in a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat; add brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook and stir until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Stir in maple syrup; cook and stir until begins to bubble. Remove skillet from heat.
4. Place 1 pear half, cut-side up, into center of skillet. Cut remaining pear halves in half; arrange pear quarters around center pear, cut-sides up.
5. Place skillet over medium-low heat; cook pears, basting with syrup mixture, until pears begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
6. Place puff pastry over pears, tucking edges around pears in skillet.
7. Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes. Place a serving plate over skillet; carefully invert to release tart onto plate (skillet will still be hot). Serve warm.
