Tuesdays with Dorie (Baking Chez Moi): Pear Cranberry Roll Up Tart

Dorie Greenspan pear and cranberry roll up tart on eatlivetravelwrite.comThis week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe is an unassuming looking dessert. It’s basically ingredients for a fruit galette rolled up to make a kind of Danish fruity roll – sort of like these Sara Lee treats from my childhood. The recipe is pretty easy – Dorie’s “go-to” galette dough filled with pears, cranberries and some preserves.

Dorie Greenspan pear and cranberry roll up tart for Tuesdays with Dorie on eatlivetravelwrite.comUm, yeah. This was good. Really good. So good that I cut myself and Neil a slice each then packed it off to my staff room. Where it was devoured and pronounced “phenomenal”. This is a gorgeous dessert, morning or afternoon tea or hey, even breakfast. Let’s face it. Anytime of the day is a perfect time to enjoy a buttery pastry with some fruit, right?

  1. Okay, NOW I know what the heck happened to this after the first “teaser” slice! 😉

    Sometimes simple can be great: and in this case, it was.

    Lucky staff room.

    IF there was more, I’d pair with a gorgeous off-dry French Rosé des Riceys.
