Pears are so good. We had almond pear tart yesterday afternoon. A friend came over for coffee. It was a good excuse to make this tart that gets 0-O-O-H’S and A-H-H-H-S! I have modified the recipe from what I used to make it. I hope you like it.

When you need an energy boost, have a pear or a slice of “Pear Almond Tart” instead of a candy bar. It works. We had leftover pear tart for lunch today. SWE-E-ET!!!
COMMENT: ” I could taste the fresh ginger. Yum! It really makes the flavour. The cake tasted so good! I loved the pears!”

I absolutely love your pear tart with almonds and ginger! I grow pears in my garden and having many, your tart will be an answer. Thank you, Eva!

It is not a luck as I planted the saplings that are now grown up trees.

Love those doilies!
It always makes people feel special when offered up something that looks a little bit fussed over.

Sorry I missed your comment earlier. This too is a big favorite of mine..Cooked pear in pastry or a nice crust add roasted chestnut and walnuts go well together. Have you made the pear tart? I’m making one tonight with store bought puff pastry. YUM!!!
