These upside down pastries deserve their reputation: quick and easy, and amazing! Here's my version with pineapple and cinnamon, inspired by our Brazilian BBQs.
Prepare the pineapple: - cut off the 2 ends- place the pineapple upright, then peel it from top to bottom all over the surface- cut in 2 lengthwise- remove the hard central part with a knife- cut into thin slices
Mix the sugar with the cinnamon.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Shape into 8 rectangles by sprinkling with cinnamon sugar.
Place pineapple slices on each sugar mound, overlapping the slices slightly.
Cover each mound with a piece of puff pastry. Press down on the edges to ensure the pastry covers the fruit.
Brush the surface of the puff pastry with the beaten egg.
