Preparation

Preheat oven to 180°C (th.6).

  • Prepare the pastry: roll out the puff pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Lightly prick the bottom with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much.
  • Spread the jelly: spread 3 tablespoons of quince jelly evenly over the pastry base.
  • Cut the pears: peel the pears, remove the core and cut into thin strips.
  • Arrange the pears: place the slices in concentric circles on the quince jelly.
  • Add the almonds: sprinkle with slivered almonds and a little brown sugar for a light caramel.
  • Browning: brush the edges of the dough with the melted butter.
  • Cooking time: bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and the pears are lightly caramelized.
  • Finishing touch: once out of the oven, add 1-2 spoonfuls of cooled quince jelly to give the pears a shiny finish.

Maison Perrotte tip Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of crème fraîche for an even more delicious dessert. This fine tart can also be eaten cold, ideal for a snack or brunch.
