Ingredients
Crust:
-
cooking spray
-
½ cup white sugar
-
3 tablespoons butter, softened
-
¾ cup all-purpose flour
-
⅓ cup finely chopped almonds
Filling:
-
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
-
¼ cup white sugar
-
1 egg
-
¾ teaspoon almond extract
-
1 (15 ounce) can pears, drained and thinly sliced
Topping:
-
1 tablespoon white sugar
-
¾ teaspoon ground cardamom
-
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Coat a 9-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom with cooking spray.
-
Beat sugar and butter together in a small bowl until crumbly. Beat in flour and almonds. Press over the bottom and up the sides of the prepared tart pan.
-
Beat cream cheese in another small bowl until smooth. Beat in sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Spread over the crust. Arrange pear slices over the cream cheese layer.
-
Combine sugar, cardamom, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the pears.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue baking until filling is set and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Cool tart on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing.
