When the flavors of fall start trending, the first one people flock to is pumpkin, with apple coming in second. But what about pears?
The last couple years I have embraced the glory of pears as the perfect transitional fruit from summer to fall. I may be sad that peaches are at their end for another year, but at least I have pears.
Not to say I don’t like apples and pumpkin, in fact I went apple picking this past weekend, I just think pears don’t get enough credit.
Also, where are the U-pick pears? The only one I have seen here is just for Asian pears, not that I don’t enjoy those, but there are so many other kinds! But I digress…
Thankfully, Melissa’s Produce also sent a bunch of pears in their care package for #FallFlavors week. Combine that with the gluten-free ginger oat graham crackers from Nairn’s, and vanilla bean paste from Taylor & Colledge I also received and I knew I have to bake something good.
Since galettes are the best, laziest pies ever, I decided to make a gingered pear galette with a crumbly toppings and served with fresh whipped mascarpone.
First of all, my obsession with ginger and pear, and cardamom and pear, is real and further verified by this dessert. And that whipped mascarpone? It makes me want to never make regular whipped cream ever again.
I also garnished it with a sprinkle of chopped pistachios because why not?

I’m with you on the pears! They’re so underappreciated and really should be the star of October! That is Pear Month, I believe. I would totally do a u-pick pears. They’re my fave fruit! And this looks off the charts delish especially with the whipped mascarpone.
