This pie was a disaster! The crust was raw and the filling was runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I would not recommend this recipe.

I didn't like this pie. The almond filling was too dense and the pears were mushy. The crust was also very bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

This pie was just okay. The almond filling was a bit too sweet for my taste, and the crust was a little soggy. I think I would have liked it better if I had used fresh pears instead of canned.

I'm not usually a fan of pear pie, but this recipe changed my mind. The almond filling was so rich and flavorful, and the pears were cooked to perfection. The crust was also perfect - flaky and buttery. I'll definitely be making this pie again!

This almond pear pie was an absolute delight! The combination of flavors was divine, with the sweetness of the pears perfectly balanced by the nutty flavor of the almonds. The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was smooth and creamy. I will
