The Andersen's Pear Pie

I'm not a big fan of Pumpkin Pie, so we when we were first married we started experimenting with other pies and this is what Ryan and I came up with. It became our new traditional Thanksgiving Day pie.


Prepared or pre-made pie dough
1 Egg
3 Tbs. Flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup melted butter
5 cups halves of canned pears
Cinnamon and sugar in shaker
Serve with Vanilla Ice Cream

Preheat oven to 450*F, line a 9-inch pie pan with pie dough. Combine and blend egg, flour, sugar, and melted butter. Arrange pears in pie shell (cups up) and pour batter over them. Put second pie dough over lattice style or prick, then flute edges. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Bake 10 minutes at 450*F, then reduce the heat to 350*F and bake about 35-45 minutes or until golden brown. YUM!
(Can also be made with peaches)
