    Ingredients

    •     Makes six
    • 1 x (about 10-ounce.) pkg. of six frzn Puff Pastry Shells
    • 1 quart Fruit - canned or possibly fresh
    • 2 Tbsp. Sugar
    • 1/4 tsp grnd Cinnamon (or possibly your choice of spice to compliment the fruit you're using)
    • 1/4 c. Jelly or possibly Jam
    •     Lowfat sour cream (optional)
    •     Here's the one thing to do the night before: Set out the puff pastry shells
    •     to thaw!

    Directions

    1. The next morning, preheat the oven to 400-F degrees. Roll or possibly press each puff pastry shell into a circle roughly 6 inches across, leaving a little ridge around the outside.
    2. Place the shells on an ungreased baking sheet, and top each with just sufficient fruit to cover the top, probably a scant 3/4 c. or possibly so. This will of course vary with thefruit you choose - and your choices are legion. This time of year, you might want to visit the farmer's market - or possibly if you're lucky, your own yard - for something wonderful and fresh and right off the tree!
    3. Anyway, sprinkle a teaspoonful of sugar on the fruit, then dust with cinnamon
    4. (or possibly nutmeg, or possibly cardamon, or possibly whatever you like, to bring out the flavor). Slide into the oven, and bake for about 25 min while you're making the coffee, frying the bacon, or possibly putting together whatever you like for breakfast.
    5. When the tarts are golden, spread a couple of teaspoonfuls of jelly or possibly jam over the top of each, and serve right away. Offer lowfat sour cream to offset some of thesweetness if desired.
