Receta Pear Pie
This is a great pie that is comparable to an apple pie, but it doesn't seem as sweet. The pears and cinnamon work wonderful together. Add some whipped cream for a perfect amount of extra subtle sweetness.
Bosc pears work best for winter season. For a more complex flavor, use a few different types of pears or a different pear for the season.
Note, try to use softer/ripe pears. Any pears that are not fully ripe or hard won't soften up in the baking process.
