Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 17 1/4-ounce package frozen puff pastry sheets (2 sheets), thawed
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 pounds firm but ripe pears, peeled, cored, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll out 1 puff pastry sheet to 12-inch square on lightly floured surface. Line 8-inch square baking dish with 2-inch-high sides with pastry, leaving 1-inch overhang on all sides. Combine sugar and next 4 ingredients in large bowl. Add pears and toss well. Spoon pear mixture into prepared pastry. Dot top of pears with butter. Roll out second pastry sheet to 11-inch square. Brush overhang of bottom pastry with water. Top pie with second pastry sheet. Press pastry edges together to seal. Trim edges to 1/2 inch. Using small sharp knife, cut slits in top of pie for steam to escape. Bake until pastry is golden brown and pears are tender, about 1 hour. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I'm not a fan of pears, but I loved this pie! The crust was flaky and the filling was sweet and creamy. I would definitely make this pie again.

This recipe is a fail. The crust was tough and the filling was watery.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie didn't turn out. The crust was soggy and the filling was bland.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. The crust was nice and flaky, but the filling was a bit too runny.

I've tried many pear pie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The crust is perfectly flaky and the filling is bursting with pear flavor. I highly recommend this recipe.

I've made this pie several times and it's always a hit. The crust is so buttery and flaky, and the filling is perfectly sweet and tart. I love that I can use fresh or frozen pears, depending on what I have on hand.
