French-style Seasonal Fruit Tart
A French fruit tart is really about the endless delicious possibilities - fruit combinations, shapes and decoration. This past summer, I served a "long and skinny" version several times, and there were never any leftovers. The tart below serves about 4 people. I recommend that the pastry cream be prepared the day before you serve the tarts, so there is adequate time for it to cool and thicken.

Tarte Tatin aux Poires
It is a sweet treat made with fresh pears that is perfect for dessert. This dessert is also fun to make during a cooking class as part of the group can prepare the fruit while the rest make the dough.
