Perfect 5-ingredient pie crust recipe | baking basics

Imagine this: You promised your friends you’d bake them something special when they came over but you only have an hour to prepare it. What if I told you that you could make deliciously soft perfectly caramelized pear tarts in about an hour with a prep time of less than thirty minutes…with just five ingredients? Yes you read that right.

That was me last weekend. I stayed up late the night before binge-watching a TV show (the irony being that I was watching a cooking show) and woke up late the next day. This recipe saved my life. The minimal prep time allowed me to get everything I had forgotten to put away into the cupboard before my friends arrived while the pies were baking. I love making things from scratch but I have been saved countless times by having ready-made puff pastry on hand and ready for days when I am short on time but still want to impress. It is super easy to use and so versatile.
