Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F, with rack on lower middle position. Grease a ceramic tart pan or cast iron pan (needs to be stovetop-safe) with the butter. Set aside.
- In a bowl, combine pears with sweet wine and 1/3 cup sugar. Let stand 1 hour. Drain and set aside.
- Place ingredients for the Batter, using only 1/3 cup of sugar, in a blender in the order of ingredients listed. Cover and blend at top speed 1 min.
- Pour 1/4 inch layer of the batter at bottom of prepared baking pan. Place over moderate heat on stovetop and heat just until a film of batter has visibly set on the bottom of the dish; this keeps fruit from sinking to the bottom. Remove from heat and pour in the remaining batter. Spread pears in a fan-like pattern or however you wish. Sprinkle on the remainin 1/3 cup sugar. Smooth surface with back of a spoon.
- Bake 50-60 min. or until puffed up and golden brown; a knife inserted into center should come out clean. Let cool a bit. Serve warm with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375F. Lightly grease an 8 inch, cast iron skillet or similar sized baking dish with some butter.
- Put the eggs and sugar in a bowl or mixer and whisk well until well broken up and combined. Add the milk, flour, vanilla, lemon zest and salt and mix/whisk until smooth.
- Peel the pears, cut in half and remove the core. Cut into slices and arrange in the bottom of the skillet/baking dish - you can fan them out slightly as I did or arrange any other way you choose.
- Carefully pour the batter into the skillet/baking dish over the pears.
- Bake in the oven for roughly 35 minutes, until lightly browned around the edges and set.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a couple of minutes before serving. It will probably be puffed up when you take it out the oven and collapse slightly after a minute.
- Sprinkle with a little confectioner's sugar to serve, if desired.

If you don't want to make a crust but want something tartlike for your Thanksgiving dessert, a clafoutis, which is something like a cross between a flan and a pancake, is a great choice. It's a very easy dessert, yet it's always impressive.

PEAR & HAZELNUT CLAFOUTIS
Combine the flavours of pear and hazelnut to make this stunning dessert. Make sure to serve the clafoutis warm - and don't forget the cream or crème fraîche

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put the hazelnuts in a food processor and whizz until finely ground. Add the flour, eggs, extra yolks, sugar, milk, cream and vanilla and whizz until you have a smooth batter.
- Halve, core and slice the pears (you can peel them first if you like, but I usually don't). Arrange the pear slices in a 26 x 33cm ceramic, cast iron or copper gratin dish, then pour in the batter. Bake for 30-35 mins, or until the batter is set in the centre, golden and slightly souffléd.
- For the topping, toast the hazelnuts in a dry frying pan (keep a close eye on them - they can go from toasted to burnt very quickly), then roughly chop them so you're left with a mixture of halved and more finely chopped nuts. Scatter over the clafoutis, then sieve a little icing sugar over the top. Leave to sit for 10-15 mins (the clafoutis will deflate a little). Serve warm with crème fraîche or pouring cream.

PEAR CLAFOUTIS
It sounds odd to say that a recipe's biggest problem is that it looks too good, but that's sort of the case with this pear clafoutis, a crustless custard fruit tart that often looks a lot sweeter and richer that it actually is. Usually made with cherries, this rustic French dessert adapts easily to any kind of seasonal fruit. If desired, brush top with warmed fruit preserves and honey and garnish with whipped cream, creme fraiche, or ice cream.

- Reserve 12 to 14 pear slices for topping and add remaining pear slices to the prepared baking dish. Pour batter over pears in the baking dish and top with almonds.
