Pear Tart

Crust:

½ cup flour ½ cup rolled oats ½ tsp salt ¼ cup cold butter, cubed 2 Tbsp cold water

Preheat oven to 400° F.

Mix flour, oats, and salt. Cut in the butter until it's crumbly. Stir in the ice water 1 Tbsp at a time, then press together into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate or freeze to make it harder.

Roll out the crust between two pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper. Press into a pie or tart pan. Prick bottom with a fork. Bake for 5 minutes, then let cool completely.

Filling:

¼ cup brown sugar 2 Tbsp flour 1 cup sour cream 1 Tbsp fruit juice 1/8 tsp ground cloves 3 cups of pears, cored and sliced thinly

Reduce oven to 350° F.

Combine flour, sugar, sour cream, fruit juice, and cloves. Mix well and spread most of it into the cooled crust, reserving about 1/3 cup. Lay pear slices over the cream, then spread the remaining cream on top. Bake for 30-40 minutes until crust is brown and cream is bubbling. Serve warm or cool.
