Ingredients
  

  • 2 recipe for pie crust
  • 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup of white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon of salt
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • 5 cups of peeled and sliced Pears

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F(230 degrees C). Put your baking sheet on the oven rack bottom.
  • Mix your flour, sugar, cinnamon, lemon zest, and salt in a mixing bowl. Spread or roll out half the pastry. Line your 9-inch size pie pan.
  • Place your pear slices in layers on the pastry-lined pan, and sprinkle the sugar mixture on every layer. Apply butter in a dotted format and sprinkle your lemon juice.
  • Roll out the remaining pastry half to make the top crust. Moisten the rim of the bottom crust using your finger dipped in a bowl of water. Lay your top crust on the filling. Use a sharp paring knife or kitchen shears to trim the edge. Under the bottom crust, fold the edge and seal by pressing. Flute the edge to allow steam to escape, cut slits on the top crust.
  • In the preheated oven, bake for 10 minutes on the baking sheet. Lower oven heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for 35 to 40 minutes longer until filling is bubbly and crust is golden brown.
  • Allow it to cool for about 4 hours, then serve.
