  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • 2 large firm pears
  • 1 sheet puff pastry
  • 80 g butter (about 6 tablespoons)
  • 100 g extra fine sugar

  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Cut pears in half lengthwise, peel, core, and cut each half into 3 wedges.
  • 2
    Preheat oven to 205°C.
  • 3
    Melt butter in a medium sauté pan over medium low to medium heat. Sprinkle sugar over butter, mix, and leave to caramelize. When browned, arrange pear slices (on one of the flat surfaces) on sugar syrup and cook for about 7 minutes. Turn each slice onto its other flat surface and cook another 7 minutes.
  • 4
    When cooked, arrange pears evenly in a fan shape. Lay out puff pastry on a board and cut a circle 1" to 2" larger than the pear arrangement. Carefully place pastry over pears, "tuck-in" edges, and gently press pastry onto pears. Bake for 20 minutes until pastry is browned.
  • 5
    Allow to cool 10 minutes. Flip over onto a plate. Rearrange pear wedges, if necessary.
  • Ready !
