Pear and almond tart

I love pears!!!
They are the easiest fruit to digest. They are antiallergenic,
contain Vit C,E, B2, copper, potassium,and are rich in fiber.
In winter is definetly my favourite fruit.
Among all the different types of pears, I prefere the Bartlett with its creamy,
sweet and aromatic flesh.
I use them in salads and desserts.
Today I share with you a easy-to-make tart that is delicious!

TART WITH PEARS

Ingredients for 4 people:
200 g ready-made puff pastry (I usually keep one always in the freezer)

Filling:
2TS melted butter
3/4 cup castor sugar
100 g ground almond (almond flour or almond meal)
1tsp vanilla essence
1/2 cup cake flour
2 eggs
2/3 pears

Preheat oven at 400F (or 200 C).
Peel and slice pears. Sprinkle them with lemon juice and set them aside.
Unroll the pastry onto a greased baking tray and prick the base with a fork.
Mark a 1+half inch (or 4 cm) border around the edges so that it can raise and
form a border.

In a bowl mix together, eggs, sugar, butter vanilla, flour and almond.
Process untill smooth and spred it over the tart base.
Press the pear slices onto the mixture and bake for 30 minutes or untill pastry is puffy and golden.

Serve it with melted dark chocolate and enjoy it!!
