Description

This pear-almond tart recipe is dairy- and gluten-free and offers rich, nutty flavors. Dust the top with confectioners' sugar for a touch more sweetness.

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups almond meal
1/4 cup gluten-free oat flour
1/2 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 1/2 (16 ounce) cans pear halves, drained and patted dry

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease the bottom of a tart pan with a removable bottom; line with parchment paper.
2 Whisk almond meal, oat flour, and baking powder together in a bowl.
3 Whisk maple syrup, egg, coconut oil, vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt together in a large bowl; fold in almond meal mixture until forms a sticky dough.
4 Press dough into the prepared pan; arrange pears, cut-sides down, on top dough.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 22 to 25 minutes.
