Description
A delicious and easy recipe for Cranberry Pear Crumble Pie, perfect for the holidays.
Ingredients
Scale
- Buttery Flaky Pie Crust or All Butter Pie Crust (makes 2 crusts)
- 6 cups 1/2-inch chunks of peeled pears (about 5 medium pears)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries (do not thaw)
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup (31g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 Tablespoon (15ml) lemon juice
- 1/2 cup (100g) packed light or dark brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for crumble topping)
- 3/4 cup (94g) all-purpose flour (for crumble topping)
- 5 Tablespoons (71g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
Instructions
- Prepare the pie crust recipe or butter pie crust through step 5.
- After the pie crust has chilled, adjust the oven rack to the lower third position and preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C).
- On a floured work surface, roll out one of the discs of chilled dough to a circle 12 inches in diameter. Place the dough into a 9-inch pie dish and flute or crimp the edges. Chill while preparing the filling and crumble topping.
- In a large bowl, combine the pear chunks, cranberries, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, ginger, and lemon juice.
- For the crumble topping, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Pour the melted butter on top and mix until crumbles form.
- Spoon the filling into the crust, leaving any juices behind, and sprinkle the crumble topping over the filling.
- Bake the pie for 55-65 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned. Use a pie crust shield or aluminum foil to prevent over-browning.
- Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. The filling will set as it cools.
- Slice and serve at room temperature. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Notes
- You can freeze the second pie crust for later use.
- Make sure to leave any juices behind when filling the pie crust.
