Pear cannelle puff pastry tart


IMG_4234It’s not so hard to live a delicious life. Not all seductive deserts need a lot of efforts, skills, ingredients or money. This impressive tart is served on your table in less than 20 minutes and cost me only 5$

This is my favorite desert, every time we dine at Paul, there is a small place reserved in my stomach for a pear cannelle tart. I am not a sweet lover, but this tart is exactly what i fancy; balanced flavors and not too much sweet. I decided to make it myself at home, the result was too much to resist!

IMG_4221For this quick and easy desert you need:

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry (to fit a pan of 22cm)
  • 3 pears sliced
  • 2 tbsp or almost 30g butter melted
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar

Preheat oven on 180ºC. Lay the puff pastry sheet in the pan and torn the edges.

Combine the butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract and cinnamon, mixing well. Using a pastry brush, generously brush the top of the puff pastry.

Layer the pear slices on top of the puff pastry covering all the surface. Brush the top of the pears with the remaining butter mixture, and sprinkle with the granulated sugar.

Bake for 15 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.

IMG_4228Trust me your house will be full of aroma, so tempting to abstain yourself from. I was thinking how to resist having my first piece until i take pictures for the post.

    Hi Jaymmy, Hope all is well.. Once more an amazing “dish”, looks delicious!! Just 2 little points: – Can I put apples instead of pears? – The word “butter” is missing after “melted” in the ingredients list.. It is obviously butter, but I thought you’d want to rectify it! Have a nice day xoxo Sawsan Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2015 06:20:45 +0000 To: symazboudi@hotmail.com

    • Hi Sawsan, thank you for the sweet words, yes you can replace with apples (try the red gala apple it’s now available in the market). I did add the word butter, it doesn’t show yet? xx take care
