I had never seen a pie without a pan until my daughter brought back this wonderful recipe from a Rotary Club exchange program in Belgium.C. B. (Sherry) LaMay, Capitan, New Mexico Ingredients:
pastry for single-crust pie (9 inches) |
3/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons sugar, divided |
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
4 cups sliced peeled fresh pears (about 4 medium) |
3 tablespoons sliced almonds |
Directions:
1. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 10-in. circle. Transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. 2. In a large bowl, combine 3/4 cup sugar and flour; add pears and toss to coat. Spoon over the pastry to within 2 in. of edges. Fold up edges of pastry over filling, leaving center uncovered. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. 3. Bake at 450° for 15 minutes or until crust is golden and filling is bubbly. Sprinkle with almonds; bake 5 minutes longer. Using the parchment paper, slide tart onto a wire rack to cool.
