Add egg and molasses; pulse just until moistened. Press onto the bottom and 1 in. up the sides of a greased 11-in. fluted tart pan with removable bottom. Bake at 375° for 15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Reduce heat to 325°.

Slice pear halves; arrange over custard. Top with remaining custard. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until custard is set. Cool completely on a wire rack.
