Apple or Pear Fruit Tarts

This delectable dessert uses puff pastry shells to easily make pear or apple pastries drizzled with prepared caramel topping and served with vanilla ice cream.

Directions

Thaw the pastry shells at room temperature for 40 minutes. Heat the oven to 375°F.  Stir the sugar, cinnamon and ginger in a small bowl.

Roll each pastry shell into a 5-inch circle on a lightly floured surface.  Place the pastry circles onto 2 baking sheets. Arrange about 2/3 cup apple slices on each pastry circle, overlapping the slices. Sprinkle each with about 1 tablespoon sugar mixture.

Bake for 25 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown. Drizzle with the caramel topping, if desired.  Serve the pastries with the ice cream.
