Ingredients

1 (14.1 ounce) package double-crust pie pastry, thawed
0.5 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon zest
0.25 teaspoon salt
5 cups peeled and sliced pears
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a baking sheet on the lower oven rack. Gather all ingredients for the pear pie.
Line a 9-inch pie plate with one pie crust. Keep the second crust ready for the top.
In a bowl, mix together sugar, flour, cinnamon, lemon zest, and salt.
Layer pear slices in the prepared pie crust, sprinkling each layer with the sugar mixture. Dot with butter and sprinkle with lemon juice.
Wet the edge of the bottom crust with water. Cover with the top pie crust and crimp the edges to seal. Trim excess dough and cut slits in the top to vent steam.
Bake on the preheated baking sheet for 10 minutes. Reduce oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
