Or you could use a mix of apples and pears. I love to add a lot of fruit to my tart, but you could also reduce this to 3 pears. Egg Wash: Brushed around the edges of the puff pastry to give I that amazing golden brown colour.Butter: Adding a little on top of the filling gives it a extra bit of caramelised delicious.Flour: A tablespoon of flour is used for thickening the filling.Ginger is added for a just a hint of spice. Spices: Cinnamon is a classic and a must have for this recipe.Brown sugar: I use Mascabado sugar which is unrefined and adds caramel like flavour to baking.Lemon juice: a little lemon juice keeps the pears from turning brown as they oxidise.You can also do a mix of pears and apples as they compliment each other perfectly. Pears: The pears should be firm but ripe - be sure they’re not overripe! I like to use Italian Abate Fetel pears, however Williams Christ and Santa Maria are also good choices.Puff Pastry: choose all-butter puff pastry, it makes this pear tart taste even more decadent!.And that is why I am sharing my version of it here, which is pretty close to the original.Įverything you’ll need to make this pear puff pastry tart And the delicious tart was the cherry on the top. The whole region is simply beautiful for enjyong a typical Provence holiday. And, I was able to enjoy the delicious pear tart in the Le Cercle de Cucuron bar, a rustic and typically French small restaurant, located just around the corner. Not only are you surrounded by the beautiful scenery of the Place de L’Etang, but the food is fantastic and the service is extremely friendly. I can highly recommend the restaurant “ Le 20 Gourmet“. There are some recommended restaurants and of course the impressive scenery that makes you feel like you’re in the middle of a movie. The director Ridley Scott shot this beautiful film there, among other things. If you enjoyed the film “A Good Year” with Russell Crowe, then you should definitely go to Cucuron in Provence. Although simple, with some testing and tweaking, here is my version of that memorable puff pastry pear tart. You could even consider this a French pear tart as the inspiration comes from our last trip to the Provence where we enjoyed a spectacular pear tart, which I can only image was made exactly this this one.
