Perfect Dessert: Plum Puff Pastry

 I really impressed myself with this one. I googled "apple plum+puff pastry": only because I wanted a good dessert and those were the only things I had that sounded like they could make a good dessert. I found this recipe from Apples & Butter -best new food blog of 2008 ...ooh-la-la. Anyway, it turned out to be super quick and easy, and an absolutely wonderful dessert. I did modify it a bit, but there are SO many things you can do with this. This is what I did:

*pre heat oven to 400 degrees
1 sheet of defrosted puff pastry, cut into 1/4's (TJ's or Baron's)
2 plums, sliced and put on top of pastry in halves
Top plums with brown sugar and sprinkle cinnamon and sugar all over pastry :)
Bake for 15-20 minutes

-Eat warm! I loved it with a side of cottage cheese mixed with honey and I don't love cottage cheese, or skip all the sugars and top with honey for a sweet breakfast, or powdered sugar ...thats what I'm doing with my one left-over tomorrow :) Next I will try the same thing, but with sliced tomatoes and pesto! Or artichoke dip and sun-dried tomatoes ..so many options and not just dessert. Puff Pastry is awesome.

Plum Puff Pastry! oh yeah...
