Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pear, thinly sliced
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup honey
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup unbleached white flour
nutmeg, if desired

Steps:

  • Grease and flour a glass pie pan.
  • Beat all ingredients together, except pears and nutmeg.
  • Pour batter into pie pan.
  • Press pear slices on top of batter, in a spiral design.
  • Sprinkle lightly with nutmeg.
  • Bake in 350 degree oven, 25-35 minutes, until center is set and tart is lightly browned.
  • Don't overcook.
  • Serve warm or cold.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe pears. They should be slightly soft to the touch and have a sweet, fragrant smell.
  • If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or even a glass to roll out the dough.
  • To prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin or work surface, dust it with a little flour.
  • If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a pie plate. Just trim the edges of the dough so that it fits the pan.
  • To prevent the tart from bubbling up in the oven, poke a few holes in the bottom of the dough with a fork.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the pears are soft and tender.
  • Let the tart cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help the filling to set.

Conclusion:

This quick pear tart is a delicious and easy dessert that can be made with just a few simple ingredients. It's perfect for a weeknight treat or a special occasion. The combination of sweet pears and flaky crust is sure to please everyone at the table.
