Sometimes it seems like apples get all the love. Don’t you think?

But sweet, juicy pears deserve a spot in your kitchen too, not only for their nutritional status {microbiome friendly fiber, vitamin C, potassium, & phytonutrients-especially when you leave the gorgeous skin on!}, but also because they taste delicious too!

Tips on How to Make the Most Delicious Pear Tart

  1. Save time by making the cashew coconut cream and pear tart crust ahead of time. Store them both in the refrigerator until you are ready to assemble your pear tarts.
  2. You can also make the chai spice mixture ahead of time, & store it in a glass jar. It’s delicious with these recipes too: Chai Apple Pie Paleo Mug Cake & Chai Spice Pumpkin Seed Almond Muesli. Yum!
  3. Choose the juiciest, most delicious pears you can find. I like this pear tart with softer pears, like Bartlett or Comice, but choose whatever pears you love. USA Pears has a great website with information on pear varieties, nutrition, and recipes.
