Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll out the 1 puff pastry sheet onto a baking sheet and prick all over with a fork.

  2. Step 2

    Scatter the 1 cup chopped dates over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border. Arrange the sliced apple, pear, and plum over the dates.

  3. Step 3

    Sprinkle the 2 tbsp pine nuts over the fruit. Fold the pastry edges over the filling to create a rustic crust.

  4. Step 4

    Bake for 18-20 minutes, until the pastry is golden and puffed and the fruit is tender. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.

  5. Step 5

    Serve warm or at room temperature. Add a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon if you like.
