Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Almond flour
- 100 grams Whole wheat flour
- 100 grams Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
- 4 pieces Ripe pears, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Granular erythritol-based sweetener
- 3 tablespoons Sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a tart pan with removable bottom (approximately 9 inches in diameter).
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, whole wheat flour, and salt. Add the cold cubed butter and use your fingertips or a pastry cutter to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add cold water, a tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared tart pan. Prick the base with a fork to prevent puffing.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, gently toss the pear slices with lemon juice, cinnamon, vanilla extract, cornstarch, and erythritol-based sweetener until well coated.
Arrange the pear slices in a circular pattern over the prebaked crust, starting from the outer edge and moving inward in an overlapping fashion.
Once arranged, sprinkle the top with sliced almonds for an added crunch.
Place the tart in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the pears are tender and the crust is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the tart cool to set for about 15 minutes before serving.
Serve slightly warm or at room temperature. Enjoy this sugar-free delight with a dollop of whipped cream or plain yogurt, if desired.
