Slices of pears baked in a pie crust with cinnamon sugar and a drizzle of honey. This honey pear galette is simple to make and perfect for serving guests during the holidays.
Ingredients
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
1 9-inch pie crust
2 medium riped D’Anjou or Barlett pears
¼ cup honey
Egg Wash
1 large egg, cracked and beatened
1 tablespoon milk
Topping
Coarse Sugar
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside for now.
In a small sized bowl, combine brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground ginger.
Roll out a 9 inch pie crust on the prepared baking sheet.
Cut the pears lengthwise and remove the core. Arrange the slices of pear on the pie crust, leaving about a 1 inch border around the edge.
Sprinkle the sugar mixture over and between the pear slices. Drizzle honey on top to cover all the pear slices.
Fold the edge of the pie crust over the pears.
In a small bowl, whisk together egg and a tablespoon of milk to make the egg wash. Brush the egg wash over the pie crust. Sprinkle coarse sugar over the edges.
Bake the honey pear galette for about 25-30 minutes until the crust has turned a golden brown and the center is bubbly.
Allow the honey pear galette to cool down before slicing into it.
