Pear cream tart recipe

Prep Time: 30 minutes - Cook Time: 40 minutes - Servings: 6

Ingredients:

• 4 pears
• pie crust (make it or buy it)
• 1 egg yolk
• 15 cl of heavy whipping cream
• vanilla extract
• a pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Pre-heat oven at 375°F.
2. Spread pie crust on dish and make holes with a fork.
3. Put in oven for 5 minutes.
4. Place peeled and cut pears.
5. (optionally) Sprinkle some cinnamon.
6. Cook for 25 minutes.
7. Add cream (egg yolk + whipping cream + vanilla + pinch of salt all whipped together).
8. Put back in oven and turn off oven. Let cook for 5 minutes while oven is cooling down.

Notes: Great with a scoop of Vanilla ice cream (à la mode).

Notes: When using apples instead of pears, I sprinkle the tart with brown sugar before baking. Also, apples are less juicy than pears, so I can skip the 5 minutes cooking the crust alone.
