Pear Pastries

Preheat the oven to 175 °C (convection) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Peel the pears, quarter them, remove the cores and cut into small dice. Drizzle with lemon juice.

In a bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, salt, cream, vanilla sugar and oil until frothy.

Combine the flour and baking powder.

Fold the flour–baking powder mixture into the egg mixture quickly until just a smooth batter forms.

Gently fold the pear cubes into the batter at the end.

Place a heaped tablespoon of batter, spaced apart, onto the prepared sheet.

Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown.

Let the pastries cool briefly on the sheet, then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely. Finally, dust with powdered sugar.
