Holiday Pear & Prosciutto Tart

Prosciutto & Pear Galette- The Little Shop of Olive Oils

Crispy, golden, and beautifully festive — this Holiday Pear & Prosciutto Tart is one of those recipes that looks impressive but couldn’t be easier to make. The combination of flaky puff pastry, juicy pears, and salty prosciutto creates the perfect sweet-and-savory bite for any holiday gathering.

Each layer brings something special — buttery pastry for crunch, ripe pears for sweetness, and prosciutto for that irresistible richness. A drizzle of Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil from The Little Shop ties it all together, while creamy goat cheese and a touch of honey or maple syrup add balance and warmth.

Serve it as an appetizer, brunch bite, or elegant side dish alongside a crisp white wine or sparkling cider. It’s simple, seasonal, and guaranteed to be the first thing gone from the table.
