Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 firm-ripe Anjou pears, peeled, cored, and finely chopped
1/2 cup dried sour cherries
1/2 cup dried currants
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup brandy
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh orange zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup walnuts (2 3/4 oz), toasted and finely chopped
Pastry dough for a double-crust pie

Steps:

  • Make mincemeat:
  • Stir together all ingredients except pastry dough and chill in an airtight container, stirring at least once a day for at least 3 days.
  • Make pie:
  • Put oven rack in middle position. Put a large baking sheet on rack and preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Roll out larger piece of dough (keep remaining piece chilled) on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 13-inch round, then fit into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Chill shell while rolling out smaller piece of dough for top crust.
  • Roll out smaller piece of dough on a lightly floured surface with lightly floured rolling pin into a roughly 16- by 11-inch rectangle. Cut crosswise into 12 (1-inch-wide) strips with a pastry wheel or a sharp knife. Stir mincemeat, then spoon into shell in an even layer. Weave a lattice pattern over pie with pastry strips.
  • Trim edges of strips flush with edge of bottom crust. Fold bottom crust up over edges of lattice and decoratively crimp.
  • Bake pie on hot baking sheet 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F and cover edge of pie with a pie shield or foil if it begins to brown too quickly. Continue to bake until crust is golden brown and filling begins to bubble around edge, about 1 hour more. Transfer pie to a rack and cool to warm or room temperature, about 2 hours. Serve pie warm or at room temperature.

This pie was very easy to make and it turned out beautifully. I used a store-bought pie crust to save time and it still came out great.

I had some trouble getting the lattice crust to look nice, but it still tasted great. I think I need to practice my lattice-making skills.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but other than that it was very good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.
