Caramelized Pear Tart image

This caramelized pear tart recipe is from a grocery store flyer. For the short crust pastry use recipe #140957 #140597 or no-roll short crust recipe #95116 #95116, or your favorite short crust pastry. I think this recipe would be equally good with caramelized apples or other fresh fruit. Serve with rich custard or vanilla ice cream.

This tart is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This tart is the perfect combination of sweet and tart. The pears are perfectly caramelized and the crust is flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a fan of the crust on this tart. I think it would be better with a puff pastry crust.

I'm allergic to pears, but I still want to try this tart. Do you think I could substitute another fruit, like apples or peaches?

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my tart didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The pears were a bit too soft and the crust was a little soggy.
