For the Crust:
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed

1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add diced pears, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Cook until pears are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Let cool slightly.
