GLUTEN PEAR TART RECIPE FULL

You just want to make sure you’ve made it as even as possible and have broken down any large chunks. They won’t have a perfectly even consistency, but that’s fine in this recipe. Then you blitz blitz blitz those nuts! Give them a couple of good minute-long blasts at least, until you’ve got a really find crumb like ground almonds. It’s a handy piece of kitchen kit to have and it really great value. It’s really easy, you’ll just need a small blender like this Kenwood Mini Chopper. You could also follow my the blueberry frangipane tart recipe I’ve linked above and sub pears in for blueberries if you prefer. Not a pistachio fan? Then sure! I would use 1 less tbsp of water for the pastry, and reduce the baking time to 30-35 minutes. Can I Use Ground Almonds Instead of Pistachio? If you’re not a pear fan, perhaps try my Blueberry Frangipane Tart instead, which is more of a classic ground almond-based frangipane packed with pops of fruit blueberries.

Pear season is in full swing in the UK at the moment, and this tart is the perfect way to showcase that juicy, sweet fruit. My hunch that a pistachio frangipane tart would turn out well came good, and I’m so glad I decided to match it up with pear.

The pastry and filling and so lovely any old gluten eater can enjoy them just as much as us coeliacs! I should also add, that all of my friends were shocked to discover that this tart is gluten free. I wasn’t sure how this tart would turn out, but I’ve now baked it multiple times and fed it to various friends, all declaring it a success. I love pistachios and have been experimenting with them in some bakes recently. A heavenly flavour combination and one cracking dessert, you should add this gluten free pear & pistachio frangipane tart to your “must bake” list asap! From the perfectly short pastry, to the slightly squidgy pistachio frangipane filling and juicy pears, the elements of this dessert are the perfect marriage.
