Ingredients
  

  • 2 pears
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour plus 1 tablespoon
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 egg white, beaten
  • 1 Basic Pie Crust or premade Pillsbury pie crust
  • 2 tablespoons raw sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll pie crust into an 11-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Transfer to a sheet pan.
  • For the filling, cut pears in wedges and place them in a bowl. Toss them with the flour, sugar and salt. Fan the pears on the dough circle leaving a 1 1⁄2-inch border. 
  • Sprinkle blueberries on top of pears. Fold over in sections. Use egg wash as glue as you work in sections around the dough. Spread remaining egg wash over folded dough. Dot the Crostata filling with butter.
  • Sprinkle raw sugar over entire tart. Place in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. 
  • Serve with whipped cream.

Notes

To freeze: Wrap the cooled tart in Siran Wrap and then foil. Place in freezer. Pull them from the freezer and place them on a cookie sheet. Put tarts in a 250 degree oven until warmed through, 10 to 15 minutes.
