I combined elements of several recipes to make this quick and easy tart.
Ingredients
Almond Filling
- 2/3 cup blanched slivered almonds
- 7 tablespoons white sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg
Graham Cracker Crust
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 ripe pear, cut in half and thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons apricot preserves (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
Combine almonds, sugar, butter, flour, and egg for filling in a food processor; process until fine. Set aside.
Step 3
Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter for crust in a food processor and process until fine.
Step 4
Press graham cracker mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Pour almond filling into the pan and spread evenly. Place sliced pears in a ring around the top of the tart.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until almond filling is set and not jiggly, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
Step 6
Meanwhile, melt apricot jam in a small saucepan over medium heat. Brush over the top of the tart.
Cook’s Note:
You can use canned pears if preferred.
