I saw a recipe for this rustic tart in a cookbook and wanted to try my own version of it. I changed the spices and chose my own fruits. It is a great dessert for the fall.-Lisa Varner, Charleston, South Carolina

This tart is delicious! The pears are perfectly caramelized and the crust is flaky and flavorful. I loved the addition of the almond filling, which added a nice nutty flavor to the tart.
