Wheat and Honey

pear

Custard: 3 ¾ cups milk ½ tsp salt 1 tiny pinch lavender buds ¼ tsp dried mint leaves 1/8 tsp dried chamomile flowers 1/3 cup honey ¼ cup + 1 tsp cornstarch 3 egg yolks 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract 1 ½ Tbsp butter

Combine 3 cups milk, salt, and honey in a saucepan over med-high heat. Grind the lavender, mint, and chamomile into powder and stir into the milk.

In a separate bowl, whisk the cornstarch into the remaining milk. Add egg yolks and mix well.

When milk comes to a boil, remove from heat and stir in the cornstarch mixture. Keep stirring as the mixture begins to thicken. Return to heat and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla. It will continue to thicken as it cools.

Pears: 2 pears 1/3 cup honey ½ tsp ground ginger ½ tsp pure vanilla extract

Arrange an oven rack about 5 inches from the broiler and heat the broiler on high. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.

Cut the pears in half lengthwise and scoop out the core and seeds. Arrange the pear halves, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet.

In a small bowl, stir the honey, ginger, and vanilla. Spoon evenly into each pear half.

Broil the pears, rotating the pan once, until bubbling and caramelized, about 5 minutes.

Chop the pears into chunks, removing the cores. Stir together chopped pears, honey, and arrowroot in an 8” square pan.

Mix the flour, oats, and sugar in a bowl and rub in the butter until it is thoroughly combined, with a texture like soft crumbs, and no dry powder. Spread evenly over the fruit.

Bake 35-45 minutes.

Crust: ¾ cup flour ¾ cup rolled oats 1/3 cup butter ¼ cup sour cream or plain yogurt 1 ½ tsp ground ginger, minced fresh ginger, or minced candied ginger

Filling: ¼ cup brown sugar 2 Tbsp flour ½ cup sour cream ½ cup blackberries 2 Tbsp milk ¼ tsp ground cloves 1 pear, cored and sliced thinly

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Crust: Stir together the flour and oats. Cut in the butter until crumbly and there's no dry powder. Stir in the sour cream/yogurt. It should be a somewhat wet dough. Sprinkle flour in the pie tin, then dump the dough in and press it evenly onto the bottom and sides.

Filling: Mix flour and brown sugar well. Stir in sour cream, berries, milk, and cloves. Mix well and spread into the crust. Lay the pear slices over the cream.

Bake for about 45 minutes until the crust is golden brown, the edges of the pear slices are browned, and the cream is bubbling.

Filling:

5 ½ to 6 cups cored, diced pears 1 ½ Tbsp cornstarch 1/8 tsp salt ¼ cup maple syrup 1 Tbsp lemon juice 1 tsp finely grated lemon zest 2 Tbsp minced candied ginger or ½ tsp ground ginger

Topping:

2/3 cup flour ¾ cup rolled oats ¼ cup packed brown sugar ¼ tsp salt 6 Tbsp cold butter

Heat the oven to 400°. Place the diced pears in a large bowl, sprinkle the cornstarch over them, and stir well. Add the remaining filling ingredients and toss gently, until the mixture is evenly combined.

Put the filling into deep-dish pie tin and smooth the top of the fruit. Bake for 45 minutes.

While it's baking, make the topping. Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut in the butter until you have large crumbs. Refrigerate the topping until you are ready to use it.

Lower the oven temperature to 375°. Remove the fruit from the oven and carefully pour the crumbs in the center of the pan, then spread them evenly. Return the crumble to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

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.

butter 2 Tbsp honey 3 or 4 ripe pears (whatever will fit in the pan) 1 cup plums, pitted and chopped ¼ cup butter 2 Tbsp molasses 2 eggs, separated ½ cup flour ½ tsp ground ginger 1/8 tsp salt

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease an 8” round cake tin and line the bottom with paper, then spread a thin layer of butter on the paper.

Drizzle the honey in the bottom of the pan. Cut the pears in half and remove the cores. Arrange the pear halves with the cut side down, in a circle in the pan, leaving an open circle in the middle. Put the plums over the pears, concentrating them in the space in the middle and between the pears.

In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and molasses. Beat in the egg yolks on high speed until creamy.

Stir in the flour, ginger, and salt. Beat the batter on medium speed for about a minute.

Warm the egg whites in a double boiler until about body temperature. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites on high speed until they form soft peaks. Fold the egg whites into the rest.

Pour the batter over the top of the fruit, spreading it out to cover the fruit.

Bake for 50-60 minutes. It will look juicy and bubbly, but the cake part will be firm to the touch.

Let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a serving plate and remove the paper.
