Time 3h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

cooking spray
½ cup white sugar
3 tablespoons butter, softened
¾ cup all-purpose flour
⅓ cup finely chopped almonds
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
¼ cup white sugar
1 egg
¾ teaspoon almond extract
1 (15 ounce) can pears, drained and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon white sugar
¾ teaspoon ground cardamom
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Coat a 9-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom with cooking spray.
  • Beat sugar and butter together in a small bowl until crumbly. Beat in flour and almonds. Press over the bottom and up the sides of the prepared tart pan.
  • Beat cream cheese in another small bowl until smooth. Beat in sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Spread over the crust. Arrange pear slices over the cream cheese layer.
  • Combine sugar, cardamom, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the pears.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue baking until filling is set and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Cool tart on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing.

This tart was very easy to make, and it turned out beautifully! The almond crust was flaky and buttery, and the pears were perfectly cooked. The cardamom added a wonderful flavor to the filling. I will definitely be making this again.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the crust was delicious. I think I'll try using a different type of pear next time, or reducing the amount of sugar in the filling.

The pears in this tart were a bit too firm for my liking, but the almond crust was delicious. I think I'll try using a different type of pear next time.

I've made this tart several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The buttery almond crust pairs perfectly with the sweet and juicy pears, and the cardamom gives it a nice warm flavor. It's also incredibly easy to make, which is always a bonus.
