Number Of Ingredients 13

CRUST
1 1/3 cups flour
1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup finely chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup butter, softened
FILLIN6
3 Kingsburg Orchards Asian pears (about 2 pounds)
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/3 cup toasted chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 F. To prepare the crust, mix the first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl; cut in the softened butter until crumbly. Press dough firmly and evenly against the bottom and sides of an ungreased 10-inch fluted tart pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until crust is golden brown. Set aside. To prepare the filling, cut Asian pears in half and core, then cut each half into 6 wedges. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add pears and sauto for 20-25 minutes, or until nearly tender. Add brown sugar and cinnamon; saute for another 5 minutes or so, until pears are tender. Place sauteed pears in a pinwheel pattern on the crust, and pour remaining sauce from the pan over them. Sprinkle with toasted pecans. Serve with ice cream. Makes 8 servings.
