Pear And Almond Flan with Chocolate Pastry

September 22nd 2009 04:01
pear and almond flan chocolate pastry
Chocolate pastry can be made simply by adding two tablespoons of cocoa powder to the flour before mixing up a standard pastry recipe. In the following recipe, with step by step pictures, I use chocolate pastry combined with an almond paste called frangipane, to make a nutritious and delicious desert

Ingredients
300g Chocolate sweetcrust pastry (See recipe)
1 Pear
300g Frangipane (See recipe)

Method
Grease and flour a flan tin or some tart dishes.
Roll out the chocolate pastry and layer the tins, then return them to the refrigerator.
Peel and thinly slice the pear, then stew the slices in a little sugar and water.
Partially bake the pastry at 180°c for about five minutes.
Layer the pear slices on the base of the pastry.
Fill the flan with frangipane. It is not necessary to smooth it as it will melt into shape.
Return the flan to the oven and bake at 170°c for a further ten minutes.
To confirm it is cooked, press the centre which should spring back readily.
