Source of Recipe

List of Ingredients




Brown Sugar Topping:
1/2 cup - all purpose flour
1/3 cup - firmly packed Domino® Light Brown Sugar
1/4 cup - butter or margarine, chilled cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/8 teaspoon - salt
Pastry for single crust 9-inch pie
Pear Filling:
4 cups - ripe Bartlett pears, peeled, quartered, cored, thinly sliced (about 1 1/2 lbs.)
1/3 cup - Domino® Granulated Sugar
1 tablespoon - all purpose flour


Recipe



To Prepare Topping:
Blend flour, sugar, butter and salt together in bowl of food processor until clumps form, about 1 minute. Transfer to a small bowl; cover and chill.

Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom with pastry; trim edges until pastry is even with top edge of pan. Set aside.

To Prepare Pear Filling:
Combine pears, sugar and flour in large bowl; toss to coat. Mound mixture evenly into prepared tart shell. Sprinkle topping thickly over pears.

Bake tart until crust is golden about 40 minutes. Cover very loosely with foil to prevent crust from overbrowning and continue to bake until juices are bubbly, about 12 minutes longer. Cool completely on a wire rack. Serve warm with ice cream.

Makes 8 servings.
