This was a recipe in the Acton Fall Fair baking category. Very nice and light, love the delicate pear flavour. And I was very proud when mine took 1st place in the category, woot! Ingredients:
4 cups sliced pears |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
2/3 cup sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons quick-cooking tapioca |
1/2 cup flour |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 cup butter |
Directions:
1. Prepare pastry for one 9 unbaked pie shell.
2. Combine pears, lemon juice, sugar, and tapioca. Mix all together and turn into pastry-lined pie plate.
3. Prepare topping by combining flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle crumbs on top of pear mixture.
4. Bake at 400F for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350F and bake until nicely browned, about 40-50 minutes more.
