Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 190 grams All-purpose flour
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 115 grams Unsalted butter (cold, diced)
- 5 tablespoons Ice water
- 6 medium Pears (ripe, peeled, and thinly sliced)
- 100 grams Brown sugar (packed)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 75 grams Rolled oats

- 75 grams Brown sugar (for topping)
- 60 grams Unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the pie crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine 190 grams of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 100 grams of granulated sugar. Cut in the 115 grams of cold, diced butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add 5 tablespoons of ice water, mixing just until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Transfer the dough to the pan, trim any excess, and crimp the edges. Place in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced pears, 100 grams of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 0.5 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Toss gently to coat the pears evenly.
Spoon the pear mixture into the chilled pie crust and spread it out evenly.
For the crumble topping: In a medium bowl, mix 75 grams of rolled oats, 60 grams of all-purpose flour, and 75 grams of brown sugar. Pour in 60 grams of melted butter and mix until crumbly.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the pears.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.
