From inmaculada 16 years ago
- 50 minutes to make
- Serves 8
Fruity and dense tart, delicious when served warm with a dollop of cream or frozen yogurt on top. William pears or similar are fine, but you can use your favorite ones with firm and sweet flesh.
Ingredients
- 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust shopping list
- 4-6 pears, rinsed and cored, thickly sliced shopping list
- Zest and juice of 1 lemon shopping list
- 2 cups wild or red mixed berries (your choice), fresh or frozen (unthawed) shopping list
- 1 cup red berries or strawberry jam shopping list
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon shopping list
- 1 tsp ground cardamom shopping list
- ¼ tsp ground cloves shopping list
- 1 cup lightly ground quick-cooking or traditional oats shopping list
- ½ cup light brown sugar (up to ¾ if you like it very sweet) shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 375ºF
- Place pie crust on an oven-proof tart-pan and prick bottom and sides with a fork. Line pastry with a double thickness of foil and bake for 8 minutes. Remove foil. Bake 4 to 5 minutes more or till set and dry.
- Arrange sliced pears on the partially baked tart shell and pour lemon juice over the pears. Add berries and spread jam over the fruit.
- In a medium bowl combine cinnamon, cardamom and cloves. Add oats, lemon zest and sugar. Mix well and spread over the fruit. Top with a lattice crust if using homemade pastry.
- Bake in preheated 375ºF oven about 45 minutes or till fruit is bubbly and pastry is golden. Cool on wire rack.
