The church that I attend has started a pie night for women once a month. For the first pie night, I made this pie, back in September, sorry for the delay in posting. all the ladies were so intrigued with pear pie, no one had even heard of it. One lady in particular loved it and took home half of the pie and the recipe and left me with one piece for my husband. Every year I get a bushel of pears to can and I will be making this once a year for sure.

What else needs to be said about this pie?? Its wonderful and will become a regular based on my families comments. Everyone loved it, I took this along with an apple pie and this was the hit of the evening. Thank you for posting this wonderful easy recipe. TIP:: cover the edges of the crust, mine became very dark even with the guards on the crust.
