Инструкции

  1. . Poach the Pears: . Remove stems and peel the pears immediately before starting the syrup. In a small saucepan, bring both water and sugar to a boil. Immediately add in the lemon juice and peeled pears. Reduce the heat to a notch lower than MEDIUM and simmer the pears for 20 minutes. Occasionally turn them. Remove the pot from the heat and let the pears completely cool in its syrup (about 2 hours).
  2. . Almond cream filling: In a medium-large bowl, beat together the butter, oil and sugar with an electrical beater until combined. Then, beat in the egg, almond extract, Amaretto liquor and lemon zest. Finish by adding both flours. Cover the bowl with a plastic wrap and chill this preparation for no more than 2 hours.
  3. . > ASSEMBLY: Pre-heat the oven to 350F/180C/Gas4.
  4. . Position oven rack on the 2nd level from the bottom.
  5. . Generously oil the pie plate. Add the crushed granola and press down and on the sides.
  6. . > Pear slice decor: . Gently manipulate the cooled pears out of the syrup* and begin to quarter them lengthwise. Core each slice. Now, slice each one lengthwise again in order to get 24 slices.
  7. . Gently spoon in and spread the almond cream into the pie crust. Then, gently lay and spiral the pear slices WITHOUT pressing them in. Spread the sliced almonds over top.
  8. . BAKE the pie for 45 minutes or until a golden glow appears. Serve at room temperature. Can be kept out for up to 2 days, otherwise refrigerate and then lightly re-warm.
  9. . * Note: With the remaining Pear syrup (about 1-1/2+cups (375ml) worth)...refrigerate for making great cocktails or other beverages. Better yet, make another dessert where cookies require to be dunked into liquid. Cold desserts like Tiramisu. Otherwise, freeze syrup into ice cubes for later. Can also be used as a thicker syrup (cooked on MED. heat until reduced by half) to be poured on pancakes or ice-cream, etc...
