Creamy pear pie (Best of country Pies)


6-8 servings

  • 4 cups sliced peeled pears
  • One-third cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon lemon extract
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)
Topping
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  1. In a large bowl, toss the pears with sugar and flour ; combine the sour cream with vanilla, lemon and almond extracts, add to the pear mixture and mix well.
  2. Pour into pastry shell.
  3. For topping, in a small bowl, mix the flour, butter and brown sugar until crumbly ; sprinkle over the pears.
  4. Bake at 400F for 10 minutes ; reduce heat to 350F and bake for 45 minutes longer or until the pears are tender.
  5. Cool on a wire rack ; store in the refrigerator.
Preventing soggy crusts
     Wait to pour a pie filling into a pastry shell until just before baking. Combining the two ahead of time and letting the unbaked pie stand contributes to a soggy bottom crust.

BON APPÉTIT
