Ingredients

Servings

Pears (peeled and sliced)

2 kg
Banana

2 pcs

Preparation

Step 1

Wash the pears, cut them into quarters, remove the cores, and cut them into small pieces. Peel the bananas and cut them into pieces. Don't peel the pears. They contain a lot of pectin, which will make the treat more elastic and give it the desired texture.

Step 2

Place the sliced pear and bananas in a blender and puree. You can also use an immersion blender for blending.

Step 3

Lightly grease the drying tray in the tumble dryer with sunflower oil. This ensures the pastila separates easily after cooking and prevents it from sticking or breaking.

Step 4

Spread the puree in an even, thin layer over the tray. Dry at 55 degrees Celsius for 6 hours. Check the pastila's readiness by touch: the finished treat doesn't stick to your hands.

Step 5

Remove the finished pastila from the trays, roll it into tubes, and serve. Pear pastila is delicious with tea or coffee. Enjoy!
