Pear Almond Tart recipe - a delicious classic (David Lebovitz recipe)

[@merko24]

bit of a funny tip I heard recently, it's helpful to poke fruit with a spoon instead of a knife to check if it's cooked through (because a knife pokes through almost everything with no resistance haha) loved the beautiful video!

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Ooh that makes a lot of sense! Haha. Ill try that next time. Thanks! :D

[@shini6409]

The transition into the drawing at the end was so cool

[@i3abikay]

Your place must have smelled so nice during, and after, the poaching and baking time. Nice addition with the rum and that little extra doesn't hurt lol

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Haha right? And yes! It smelled like fall in the house :3

I have an almond allergy but I just love the atmosphere of your videos so much that I tried to experience this beautiful tart through the screen ::0

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Aw thank you!

[@clovergh0st434]

god that looks heavenly. almonds are so underrated in baking. what a lovely combo!

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Love almonds! :)

I’m having a super stressful day, the kind where you get so frustrated with things you can’t fix, that you want to rage cry in exasperation. As a baker and artist, this was so calming, it literally helped me forget my troubles for a while. Thanks. 🥧 I also love David Leibovitz’s tart recipe. My Kindle cookbook collection is getting ridiculous. P.S Two emoji that we need and don’t have: an orca emoji and a tart emoji.

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Thanks! I would definitely love a tart and orca emoji! Haha

[@JoshWitte]

Your videos are my comfort food 😊

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

That makes me so happy to hear 🥰

[@chrishuynh3366]

I wonder if the syrup would be nice on a fluffy stack of pancakes 🤤

[@i3abikay]

That would be tasty!

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Ooh! Now i want to try!! Haha

[@midnightice]

Oh absolutely

[@adamix1010]

Fantastic! It looks so good, and on top of that, your drawings give those videos additional special touch

[@Ari-ez3yf]

Looks absolutely wonderful!! Frangipane always sounded like it was extremely difficult to make, so now that I've seen how I have to give it a try

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Thanks! And happy baking!! :D

[@maudline]

This looks so good! Here in Denmark, we have one wuite similar but instead of the powdered sugar we have creme fraische 😋

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Ooh creme fraiche sounds delicious!

[@midnightice]

Pears are one of my favorite fruits and I love the texture of almond flour. I made this recipe yesterday and it turned out to be so much easier than I expected and it was absolutely delicious. Thank you!

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Definitely! For something that looks so elegant, I was so happy with how simple it was to make! So glad that you enjoyed it!! 🥰

[@bubstrate2845]

it looks like a sand dollar!

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

I cant unsee it now! Haha

[@lumpiaseverywhere]

FIREEE

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

:D

[@zahrahusrieh3849]

the tart at the end with the 5 sliced pears looks like a starfish submerging itself in the sand :D I'd love to have this tart at a fancy cafe with a macchiato! do you think that mixing the flour in the hot butter toasted it a little like for a roux and added some slight complexity to the taste of the crust? I wonder what the rationale is behind that method...

[@joshuacooksthendraws]

Im not sure about the rationale behind it! Haha. But it was definitely tasty and simpler/easier to make. And yeah it does look like a starfish! A bit like a sand dollar as well :D
