Pear Tart

A tart is basically a pie without a top crust.
I use one 9" pie crust to make this pear tart.
Served with vanilla ice cream, it's a winner!

Ingredints:
1 store bought pre-made 9" pie crust.
3 fresh baking pears
1 tablespoon flour
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon un-salted butter
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Unwrap pie crust and let come to room temperature.
Cut ends off pears, peel, core and slice.
Place pie crust in a glass cake pan.
Place in oven and blind bake 10 minutes.
You might want to cover the edge with foil.
Remove crust from oven and arrange pear
slices in crust to cover bottom.
Sprinkle pears with flour.
Sprinkle pears with brown sugar.
Dot with butter.
Pull crust from edge of cake pan over pears.
It should reach about two inches over pears.
Bake for about 45 to 60 minutes until done.
