Coconut-Streusel Pear Pie image

I remember my mom making this pie when I was growing up. I make several while I have fresh pears from the family tree, then freeze them for later. One taste tester declared it "the best pear pie I have ever eaten." -Paula Hoffman, Plainview, Nebraska

I've tried many pear pie recipes, but this one is by far the best. It's the perfect balance of sweet and tart.

I'm not a huge fan of pie, but this one is a game-changer. The crust is so flaky and the filling is so flavorful. I could eat a whole pie by myself!

This pie is a bit more work than your average pie, but it's totally worth it. The streusel topping is what really makes this pie special.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I'm so glad I did! The coconut flavor is actually quite subtle and it pairs perfectly with the pears. This pie is definitely a new favorite of mine.

I've made this pie several times now and it's always a hit with my family and friends. The pears always come out perfectly tender and juicy, and the coconut streusel topping is simply divine.
