This was disappointing, only because it was almost indistinguishable from apple pie. It probably could be improved with additional spices spices . The consistency of the cooled pie made for a nice, neat slice, but I don't think I'll make this again. Not bad, just lackluster, for me.

I enjoyed this recipe, but if i had to choose between this or apple, i'd choose apple. I used asian pears - maybe that is where i went wrong? Although I thought they were perfect because they remained firm while cooking. I would make this again with double the sugar mixture.

Yum, yum. It was a little sweet for my liking, so next time I will reduce the sugar. But this was a fun variation on an apple pie. Everyone loved it.

Loses the pear flavor in baking. A good pie but tastes just like apple pie so not sure I would use pears again.

I've been making this now for two or three years. It has become my signature pie. My mom absolutely DEMANDS one all to her self for Thanksgiving and Christmas. The only thing I do differently than the original recipe is mixing everything together before putting into the crust (as opposed to sprinkling it on top) and increasing the cinnamon to 1.5 tsp (because I love cinnamon) and adding a half tsp of nutmeg.

Well received. Not too sweet. Didn't think it tasted like apple pie and neither did anyone else.

Father-in-law & husband both LOVED this pie! Said it was better than apple pie even though they both taste very similar.

This was such an great recipe for the pears I had in my fridge leftover from Christmas. They were starting to get soft and when I made this pie, it went wonderfully with some coffee I shared with a friend! Delish!
