Pear and Hazelnut Frangipane Tart Recipe

Combine the flour sugar and salt in a food processor. Add the cold butter and pulse ten times until the butter is the size of large peas. Add 3 tablespoons of cold water and pulse until it comes together. Turn onto a lightly floured work surface and bring the dough together forming a disk. Wrap in Reynolds® Parchment Paper and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Cover the top of the dough with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil and weigh down with pie weights or dry beans. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and pie weights and let cool.

Combine the hazelnuts and sugar in the food processor. Pulse to a fine powder. Add the butter egg flour vanilla rum and salt. Process until it comes together as a paste.

Spread the mixture over the partially baked tart. On the top arrange the pear slices in a pattern. Bake the tart for 30 to 35 minutes until golden brown. Let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
