Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 40 minutes
Serves: 8

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs ripe pears, cored and sliced

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tbsp all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp ground ginger

1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 store-bought pie crust

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

1 tbsp turbinado sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a large bowl, combine sliced pears, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Toss until the pears are evenly coated.

3. Roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the crust to the prepared baking sheet.

4. Arrange the spiced pear mixture in the center of the crust, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges.

5. Fold the edges of the crust over the pears, pleating as necessary to create a rustic border. Brush the crust with beaten egg and sprinkle turbinado sugar over the top.

6. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the pears are tender.

7. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
