Absolutely wonderful pie. Better than any apple crisp!

The main reason I made it was because canned pears had been left at my house, but it was quite good.

I made this using raw fresh pears so it took awhile longer to bake. Next time I will pre-cook the pears before making the pie. This pie was amazingly delicious. It tasted both light and yet rich, like a fruit pie yet like a cream pie. and I usually prefer a rolled crust but the graham cracker crust was exactly right for this recipe. Everyone LOVED it. Next time I need to bake two.

This was a really nice recipe! I did make some changes to suit my family better though. First, I added a teaspoon of almond extract to the filling, and I also used fresh, ripe pears in the filling instead of canned ones. I didn't use a graham crust but instead made pie crust using the recipe on the Crisco box, it always turns out for me and delivers a nice, flaky crust. Lastly, I added some oatmeal to the topping. We really liked this pie, and will make it again, it would be quite refreshing in the summer!

Im really surprised this is so highly rated. Its not bad, but just not...really anything. I thought the pear flavor was too mild and the topping bland and not sweet enough. Needs something else in the filling to make it have more taste, definitly!

Very tasty! But I wonder if this freezes well at all? I made little tartlets with this recipe for a Bible study which got cancelled last minute and now have 2 trays of these tarts. Anyone tried freezing these? SO I did freeze them and they did turn out well after I reheated them in the oven. It was a hit!
