Here is a recipe which shows how easy is to make a classic dessert your own. <br />Last Saturday I saw Ina Garten make individual Apple tarts on TV. They looked so good and easy; Ina made the tarts with puff pastry instead of pastry dough; in my opinion, almost anything is better and easier with puff pastry and I always have it in my freezer. I didn’t have apples, so I used pineapple which I marinated in honey, lime juice and zest, Calvados and mint leaves. The marinade not only added to the pineapple a delicious sweet and tangy flavor, but also made a wonderful thick syrup and I used it to glaze the tarts instead of apricot jam or jelly. Finally, to add a savory note and a salty touch, I placed a slice of Fontina cheese between puff pastry and the pineapple slices. These tarts would be equally delicious with apricots, peaches, plums and pears. They are good for a dinner party, served a la mode with vanilla bean ice cream or for breakfast with a cup of hot coffee.Try this recipe; it is a lot better than buying the tarts in a Patisserie! <br />
