French Pear Pie image

Fruit pies always make a good dessert, I think. Based on the reviews, I don't think any changes are necessary for this adopted recipe. The reviewer's suggestion of lemon juice instead of orange juice is a great idea if you're like me and always have lemons or lemon juice but rarely keep orange juice in the house.

I'm not a big fan of pears, but I loved this pie! The crust is so flaky and the filling is perfectly balanced. I'll definitely be making this again.

This pie is delicious, but it's a little too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll use less sugar in the filling.

This is a great recipe for a classic French pear pie. The crust is flaky and the filling is sweet and juicy. I added a little bit of cinnamon to the filling, which gave it a nice warm flavor.

I've made this pie twice now, and it's a hit every time! The first time I made it, I used store-bought pie crust, but the second time I made my own. The homemade crust was definitely worth the extra effort.
