By Hklbrries

Ingredients

• 6 cups thinly sliced, cored, peeled pears
• 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 3 tbsp quick-cooking tapioca
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp ground ginger
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 (15 ounce) package refrigerated pie crust
• 1 tbsp margarine or butter

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 400 F.

Mix pears, sugar, tapioca, lemon juice, ginger and cinnamon in large bowl. Let stand 15 minutes.

Prepare pie crusts as directed on package. Line 9-inch pie plate with 1 of the pie crusts. Fill with fruit mixture. Dot with margarine. Cover with second pie crust; seal and flute edge. Cut several slits to permit steam to escape.

Bake 60 minutes or until juices form bubbles that burst slowly. Cool.
