Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Sauté the figs for 1-2 minutes, sprinkle in 1/4 cup of brown sugar, and let simmer for about 1 minute.
  3. Roll out your puff pastry to form a circle about 10 inches in diameter and drape it over the fig mixture in the skillet, tucking in the edges.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes until the pastry is golden brown.
  5. Toast 1/4 cup of shelled pistachios in a small pan with a teaspoon of olive oil for about 3-4 minutes. Coat with 2 tablespoons of honey and a pinch of sea salt.
  6. Cool the tart for a few minutes before inverting onto a cutting board. Drizzle with honeyed pistachios and sprinkle with flaky sea salt, then slice and serve warm.
