Pear Pie II

SUBMITTED BY: TNMARTIN PHOTO BY: Kahori526

"A wonderful custard type pie. The recipe was given to me by a friend when I had a bumper yield of pears from the tree in our yard. It's a favorite even when I have to buy the pears. To make prep time even faster I use a deep dish pie shell from the frozen food section."
