FILO PEAR AND HONEY TARTS
Serves 4
These tarts are a tasty way of adding extra fruit to your family diet. They are made with filo pastry which contains only half the fat of traditional pastry. Try making them with cooked apple, apricots or a ready made fruit compote.

Preheat the oven to 180 C/ 350 F/ gas mark 4.
Place the pears, honey, the orange and lemon peel, lemon juice and water in a large pan and bring to the boil. Lower the heat, cover wiht a lid and cook gently for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pears are soft. Allow to cool.
Lay the sheets of filo pastry on the work surface and brush lightly with butter. Cut into 16 x 15 cm squares and place another square over the top at an angle to make a star shape. Repeat with 2 more squares of pastry. Gently press into a muffin tin. Re[eat with the remaining pastry until you have 4 pastry cases.
Fill each case with the pear mixture, then brush the trimmings with butter, scrunch them up and place on top of the tarts. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Serve each tart dusted with icing sugar, and with a scoop of ice cream.
