Orange Pear Tarts
Why I Love This Recipe
I came up with this on the fly. The family wanted dessert and I didn't have anything available at hand without running to the store. So digging through the pantry and fridge I managed to find everything I needed to make a pie crust, along with a few pears and oranges.
Ingredients You'll Need
3-4 Peels and chopped Pears
