- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the pears. — 400°F
- Scatter the almond slivers over the top of the tart. — 400°F
- Bake the tart until the pastry is puffed and deeply golden brown and the pears are tender, approximately 25 minutes. (about 25 min) — 400°F
