Ingredients

Directions

  1. Roll out the bottom pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch glass pie plate, trimming any excess hanging over the edges.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sugar and cornstarch until evenly mixed.
  3. Add the chopped ginger to the sugar mixture and toss gently to coat.
  4. Add the prepared pears to the bowl and mix well until the fruit is thoroughly coated with the sugar and ginger mixture.
  5. Spoon the pear filling evenly into the crust-lined pie plate.
  6. Place the second pie crust over the filling, seal the edges by pressing down firmly, and flute the edges decoratively.
  7. Cut several slits or decorative shapes into the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
  8. Brush the top crust lightly with water and sprinkle with the remaining 4 teaspoons of sugar.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven at 425ðF (218ðC) for approximately 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
