Servings: persons

1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon finely grated lime zest
3 tablespoons Calvados or rum
1 large ripe pineapple or 24 canned pineapple slices in 100% pineapple juice, well drained
1/4 cup fresh mint or basil leaves
1 package (2 sheets) frozen puff pastry, defrosted
8 deli slices good quality melting cheese such as Fontina, Sharp White Cheddar or Gruyere
About 1/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter, small-diced

1
Whisk first 4 ingredients in large glass or nonreactive dish. Peel pineapple; cut lengthwise in 4, remove and discard core; then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices. Add pineapple to dish; turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand at room temperature for 2 or in the refrigerator up to 4 hours.
2
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line 2 sheet pans with foil and parchment paper. Cut each sheet of puff pastry into 4 squares. Divide the pastry between the prepared sheet pans, place a slice of cheese on top of each pastry square and refrigerate until ready to assemble and bake.
3
Pour the pineapple slices and the marinade onto a large colander placed over a bowl; drain well, reserve the marinade and mint leaves.
4
When ready to bake, place overlapping slices of pineapple all across the pastry. Sprinkle evenly with sugar and dot them with the butter. Bake for 20 minutes; then lower the temperature to 350 degrees and bake for 20 more minutes or until the pastry is browned and the edges of the pineapples start to brown.
5
While the tarts are baking, pour the marinade into a sauce pan, bring to boil, lower the heat and simmer until the marinade thickens to syrup consistency; then strain. When the tarts are done, brush the pineapples and pastry with the syrup.
6
Loosen the tarts with a metal spatula so they don't stick to the paper. Allow to cool and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
