Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pie crust
- 1 pound pears, Bosc; approximately 2 pears
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- ⅓ cup (67g) packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons salted caramel, plus more for garnish
- Egg Wash, for brushing
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F and prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat.
- Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl and mix well. Set this mixture aside.
- Thinly slice the pears into 1/16-inch pieces and place them in a large bowl. Toss the slices with lemon juice, then add the sugar mixture and coat the pears evenly.
- Roll out the pie crust on a sheet of parchment or a silicone mat, forming a 12-inch circle.

- Carefully fold the edges of the crust over the pears, overlapping as needed. Brush the edges with egg wash.

- Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
