Method:

Preheat oven to 160°C.

Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of a food processor and process until just combined.

Add the eggs, almond meal, flour, baking powder and lemon rind and process until just combined.

Spoon the mixture into a lightly greased 9.5cm x 33cm loose-bottom fluted tart tin.

Place the pears and extra brown sugar in a bowl and toss to coat.
