Categories     dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 6 servings, serving size 1 wedge

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup whole-grain pastry flour or regular whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons lowfat buttermilk
3 tablespoons ice water
3 medium pears
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoon boiling water

Steps:

  • To prepare the crust, in a medium bowl whisk together the whole-wheat pastry flour, all- purpose flour, granulated sugar and salt. Add the butter and using two knives or a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture until you get a pebbly, course texture. In a small bowl combine the buttermilk and ice water. Using a fork, gradually mix the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture. Pat the dough into a 4-inch round and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • In the meantime, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F, and prepare the filling. Peel the pears, core them and cut into 1/4-inch slices. In a large bowl toss the pear slices with the lemon juice. Sprinkle in the cornstarch, brown sugar and cinnamon and toss until the pears are evenly coated. Set aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the chilled dough into a large circle about nine inches in diameter. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and draping the dough over the rolling pin, transfer to the prepared baking sheet. If the dough breaks at all patch it up with your fingers.
  • Arrange the pears in a mound in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch boarder. Fold the border over the filling. It will only cover the pears partially and does not need to be even.
  • Bake the tart for 15 minutes, and then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, keeping the tart in the oven all the while, and bake for another 40 minutes, until the pears are tender and the crust is golden brown.
  • In a small bowl stir together the honey and boiling water to make a glaze. When the tart is done remove it from the oven and brush the honey glaze all over the top of the fruit and crust. Transfer to a plate to cool slightly. Cut into 6 wedges and serve warm or a room temperature.

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, diced,
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, divided
6 tablespoons buttermilk
3 tablespoons sugar
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
4 cups pears, peeled, cored, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces, tossed with 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon melted butter
3 tablespoons turbinado sugar
Ice cream or whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the bottom blade, add the whole wheat flour, 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, and the salt and pulse 3 to 4 times to combine. Add in the diced cold butter, 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/8 teaspoon ginger, and pulse at 3 to 4 second intervals for 6 to 10 times until the mixture resembles sand. Add in the butter milk and pulse until a dough ball forms. Remove from the food processor onto a lightly floured board. Roll the dough into an oval, approximately 16 by 14 inches. Rough edges are okay, but you can trim decoratively if desired. Transfer to a silicone or parchment lined baking sheet.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons flour, sugar, and the remaining spices and mix well. Toss this flour mixture with the pears, gently coating. Pile the pear mix in the center of the tart dough, leaving a 3 to 4-inch border, and then fold the edges up and around the pears, leaving an opening in the center. Crimp any breaks in the dough. Place the baking sheet with tart into the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Brush with the melted butter and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar. Place in the oven and bake for 1 hour.
  • Remove, allow to cool. Serve at room temperature with ice cream or whipped cream.

PEAR GINGER TART



Pear Ginger Tart image

Choose ripe but firm pears for this delightful fruit tart. They are poached in a vanilla-scented syrup until just tender, then drained overnight; so plan accordingly. Note that most of the sugar in the syrup is drained off.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, dessert

Time 1h

Yield 1 tart, serving 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 9-inch gluten-free dessert pastry shell (or other pastry shell of your choice), fully baked
1 vanilla bean
1 1/4 cups water (295 grams)
Scant 1/2 cup sugar (100 grams)
2 large ripe but firm pears, peeled, cored and diced (about 360 grams/ 3/4 pound / 3 cups peeled and diced pears)
2 tablespoons chopped candied ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch (5 grams)
2 tablespoons sugar (30 grams)
2/3 cup whole milk (150 grams)
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Split the vanilla bean in half and scrape out the seeds with the tip of a paring knife. Place the water and the 1/2 cup (100 grams) of sugar in a saucepan, add the vanilla bean and seeds and bring to a boil over medium heat. When the syrup comes to a boil turn the heat to low, add the pears, and poach on medium heat for 5 minutes, or until the pears soften slightly. Do not over-cook. Set a strainer over a bowl and carefully transfer the pears to the strainer. Refrigerate and let drip overnight. Set aside the syrup for another purpose (it's great with yogurt or ice cream).
  • The next day prebake the pastry [ed: please link], then turn the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons (30 grams) sugar together in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the milk, egg yolks and vanilla extract.
  • Toss the poached pears with the diced candied ginger and arrange evenly over the bottom of the prebaked tart shell. Pour in the custard mixture, filling the tart 4/5 of the way so that a rim of crust is exposed. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until beginning to color and the flan has set.

RUSTIC PEAR TART RECIPE BY TASTY



Rustic Pear Tart Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: all purpose flour, powdered sugar, salt, butter, egg, butter, granulated sugar, salt, eggs, almond flour, all-purpose flour, pears, butter, granulated sugar

Provided by Tasty

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
¾ cup powdered sugar
1 pinch salt
1 ¾ sticks butter, cubed and chilled
1 egg
¾ cup butter, softened (1 1/2 sticks)
1 cup granulated sugar
½ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 ¼ cups almond flour
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 pears, cored and sliced 1/4-inch thick
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 ½ tablespoons granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Add the flour, powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt to the bowl of a food processor. Add the cold butter cubes and begin pulsing, 10-15 times, until the butter is fully incorporated into the flour.
  • Add the egg to the food processor and pulse just until a dough begins to form. Place the dough onto a work surface and knead it lightly, just to bring it together. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Make the filling: Add the softened butter, granulated sugar, and salt to a medium bowl. Combine the mixture with an electric hand mixer, gradually increasing the speed from low to medium-high. Beat until fluffy, then add each egg, 1 at a time, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl between each addition. Lastly, add the almond flour and all-purpose flour and combine on low speed until homogenous.
  • Arrange a rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Assemble the tart: Remove the tart crust from fridge and gently roll out to roughly a 12-inch round on a floured work surface. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan, then top with the filling, spreading it as evenly as possible.
  • Arrange the pears in a spiral pattern on top of the filling. Brush the entire surface with the melted butter, then sprinkle the granulated sugar over the pears.
  • Bake, rotating halfway through, for 50-55 minutes, or until the crust is browned and the center of the tart is no longer jiggly. Let cool completely before slicing.
  • Enjoy!

PEAR-MACE RUSTIC TART



Pear-Mace Rustic Tart image

A pretty fold up the crust tart with a delicious filling of thick pear wedges, lemon zest, and mace (a nutmeg like spice). Don't let the amount of directions panic you. It's not really difficult and is a pleasant way to pass 45 mins of afternoon time.*EDIT: I have corrected my mistake after Rita's review, I mistakenly said to use foil under the tart for baking, It should have read parchment paper. Rita feels that buttering or greasing the pan would do a good job of releasing the tart also. :D

Categories     Tarts

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons finely shredded lemon peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground mace
1/3 cup shortening
4 -5 tablespoons ice water
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted and finely chopped
4 bartlett pears, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges (about 4 cups)
1/2 cup sugar
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons finely shredded lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon ground mace
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg white
1 tablespoon water
sugar
spiced whipped cream (below) (optional) or vanilla ice cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  • FOR CRUST:.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the 1-1/4 cups flour, the 1-1/2 teaspoons lemon peel, the salt, and the 1/4 teaspoon mace.
  • Using a pastry blender, cut in the shortening until pieces are pea-size. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the ice water over part of the flour mixture; gently toss with a fork.
  • Push moistened dough to the side of the bowl.
  • Repeat moistening flour mixture, using 1 tablespoon of the remaining ice water at a time, until all the flour mixture is moistened.
  • Form dough into a ball and on a lightly floured surface, use your hands to slightly flatten dough.
  • Roll dough from center to edge into a circle about 13 inches in diameter. Transfer dough circle to prepared baking sheet.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • FOR FILLING:.
  • Spread almonds on dough circle to within 2 inches of the edge.
  • Place pears in a large bowl.
  • In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup sugar, the 4 teaspoons flour, the 2 teaspoons lemon peel, and the 1/2 teaspoon mace.
  • Toss half of the sugar mixture with pears.
  • Mound pear mixture on top of the almond-covered dough.
  • Sprinkle remaining sugar mixture over pear mixture and dot with butter.
  • Fold dough edge up and over pears, pleating dough gently as needed.
  • In a small bowl, combine egg white and the 1 tablespoon water; beat with a fork.
  • Brush mixture onto the top and side of the dough.
  • Sprinkle with additional sugar.
  • Bake about 45 minutes or until filling is bubbly, pears are tender, and pastry is golden.
  • If necessary to prevent overbrowning, cover edge with foil for the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking.
  • Cool on the baking sheet for 30 minutes.
  • Serve warm.
  • If desired, serve with Spiced Whipped Cream or ice cream.
  • SPICED WHIPPED CREAM:.
  • In a chilled small bowl, combine 1/2 cup whipping cream, 1 tablespoon sugar, and dash ground mace.
  • Beat with the chilled beaters of an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form (tips curl).

Tips:

  • Use ripe pears: This will ensure that your tart is sweet and flavorful. If your pears are not ripe, you can ripen them by placing them in a paper bag with an apple for a few days.
  • Use fresh ginger: Ground ginger will not provide the same flavor as fresh ginger. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can substitute 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger for every 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make it tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly: This will ensure that the tart is cooked through.
  • Let the tart cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling to set.

Conclusion:

This rustic pear and ginger tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet pears and spicy ginger is sure to please everyone. With its flaky crust and creamy filling, this tart is sure to become a favorite.
