Ingredients

• 1 piece Premade pie crust
• 6 medium Pears (ripe but firm, peeled, cored, and sliced)
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 50 grams Brown sugar
• 85 grams Unsalted butter
• 100 grams All-purpose flour
• 50 grams Rolled oats
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 15 grams Cornstarch
• 60 milliliters Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the premade pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and flute the edges as desired.

Step 2

In a medium skillet, melt 50 grams of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the granulated sugar and 30 grams of the brown sugar, stirring until dissolved and bubbling.

Step 3

Slowly stir in the heavy cream, then add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced pears with cornstarch, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Toss until the pears are evenly coated.

Step 5

Pour the caramel mixture over the pears and toss to coat evenly. Spread the pear filling into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, prepare the crumb topping by combining the flour, rolled oats, remaining brown sugar, 35 grams of butter (cut into small cubes), and 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to mix until the crumbs are pea-sized.

Step 7

Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the pear filling.

Step 8

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the filling set.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
