Using a small saucepan, such as a 2 quart saucier, place the pear slices down in a circular pattern. Place the cranberries over the pears, and then sprinkle with sugar. Dot with pieces of butter and top with lemon juice. Set aside. Roll puff pastry to 1/8 inch thickness and cut into an 8 inch circle. Place pastry directly on top of fruit mixture and bake on middle rack for 30 minutes, or until pastry turns golden brown and the thickened, amber-colored caramel is bubbling around the edge. Carefully remove from oven and quickly invert onto a large plate, (preferably not totally flat, but having a slight edge so that the juices will not run all over the place!) being careful not to touch the hot caramel. Cool and serve. Recipe created 1996-10-13. © 1996-2013 Dorothy McNett. All Rights Reserved. |
