How to cook deliciously - Apple Pear Pie

1. Stage

In a large bowl, combine the pears, apples, 1 cup of the sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon and nutmeg. Line a 9-inch pie pan with the bottom pastry, trimming the edges so you have 1-inch of crust beyond the edge of the plate. Dot the top of the filling with butter.

2. Stage

Roll out the remaining pastry to fit the top of the pie. Cut slits in the pastry top (or feel free to get creative with decorative cutouts), then place the pastry over the filling. Trim, seal and flute the pie edges. If you have any cutouts from the pastry, you can use those as extra toppers to create a decorative pie crust. Brush the tops with milk and sprinkle with the remaining sugar. Cover the pie edges loosely with foil. Editor’s Tip: Covering the edges will ensure that the pie edges to not get overcooked and burn while you’re trying to bake the rest of the pie.

3. Stage

Bake the pie at 350°F for 30 minutes. Remove the foil edges and bake for another 30 to 35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Test Kitchen Tip: The fruit filling will be hot and loose! We recommend waiting for the pie to cool almost completely before slicing to ensure cleaner slices when it’s time to serve.
