50 gm butter
2/3 cup maple syrup
3 pears peeled and halved
300 gm puff pastry store-bought or homemade
1/4 cup pecans roughly chopped
1/2 tsp cinnamon powder

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 degree C. Place butter and maple syrup in an oven-safe frying pan (8 inch diameter) and simmer to bring to boil. Add cinnamon and vanilla powder and take the pan off heat.
Arrange the pears in the base of pan and sprinkle with chopped pecans.
Roll the pastry on a lightly floured surface to 5 mm thickness. Cut out an 8 1/2 inch circle to fit inside the pan over the pears. Place the rolled pastry over pears tucking in the pastry beneath the pears.
Cut a small incision in the centre of the pastry using a sharp knife.
Bake the tart for 35-40 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden.
Allow to stand for 2 minutes then loosen the pastry from the edges of pan using an offset spatula or knife. Invert onto a plate. Serve warm with ice cream.
