- Preheat your oven to 400F (204C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or grease it with nonstick spray.
- Lightly dust a cutting board with flour, unfold the puff pastry, and roll it out to smooth any creases. Transfer to the prepared tray.
- Pierce a 1/2-inch border around the pastry edges with a fork, and prick the center 10 times. Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Artfully arrange the apple and pear slices inside the border, overlapping in 4 rows or a diagonal pattern for visual appeal.
- Brush fruit with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Bake 15 minutes until pastry is golden and puffed.
- Remove from oven, brush with warm honey, and bake 5 more minutes. Serve warm with a dollop of mascarpone for creamy bliss.
