Try this French-style free-form tart recipe featuring caramel coated pears wrapped in Pillsbury® pie crust – a fitting dessert to end a fall meal.

Ingredients

1: Pillsbury™ refrigerated pie crust, softened as directed on box

1/2: cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (2 oz)

5: ripe Bartlett or Anjou pears, peeled, cut into 1-inch slices

1: tablespoon lemon juice

1/8: teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4: cup packed brown sugar

3: tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/3: cup granulated sugar

Steps

1 Heat oven to 400°F. Line 15x10x1-inch pan with parchment paper or wax paper; spray paper with cooking spray.
2 Remove pie crust from pouch; unroll on lightly floured work surface. Roll into 11-inch round; place in pan. Sprinkle cheese over crust to within 1 inch of edge.
3 In large bowl, toss pears with lemon juice and nutmeg. Add brown sugar and flour; toss gently. Mound pear mixture on center of crust to within 2 inches of edge. Fold edge of crust over pears, pressing gently to seal (crust will not cover pears in center).
4 Bake 30 minutes or until crust is lightly browned (filling may leak slightly during baking). Remove galette from pan and cool on cooling rack.
5 In 1-quart heavy saucepan, heat granulated sugar over medium heat about 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until sugar is dissolved. Cook and stir 1 minute or until golden. Remove from heat; drizzle caramelized sugar over galette.
