Ingredients
  • half a fresh pineapple, skinned and cored and sliced, 1/3-1/4 inch thickness
  • 1 or 2 firm ripe pears, peeled (or not), seeded, sliced into 1/3 inch pieces
  • 5 oz. almond paste (Odense) sliced and chopped into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup sugar ( I used light brown)
  • 2 oz (4 T )butter, room temp.
  • 1.5 Table. dark rum ( Captain Morgan)
  • 1 large egg, room temp.
  • Pastry dough ( I used my pate brisee recipe) posted on this site) enough to roll out to 15 inch diameter
  • 2 Table. sugar
  • 1 T. melted butter

Directions
  1. Place 1/4 cup water in freezer (to start the pate brisee)
  2. Prep baking pan. ( I used a pizza pan, and lined it with aluminum foil)
  3. Preheat oven 400 degrees Farhenheit, middle shelf in oven.
  4. While the prepared crust dough is chilling, put together the frangipane:
  5. Electric mixer ( I used food processor with metal Blade) combine the almond paste and 1/4 cup sugar. Add the butter(2 oz) and the rum, and beat it in . Lastly, throw the egg into the mixture, and beat until smooth.
  6. Now, go get the pastry, smear the frangipane all over, leaving a 2 inch border on the outside rim. Place the fruit anyway you like, mine is more peasanty/ mosaic ally. fold the border of the pastry up toward the center , making an edge all around, pleating the dough a bit as necessary. (this part is very forgiving. the frangipane drooled over the side before I had pulled up the edges. I just pulled the pastry up, and it all turned out beautifully. and the foil saved the day!! Husbands birthday!! I am guessing about the time to bake. When it is puffy and a light brown crust take it out and onto a cooling rack. Serve room temp.
