3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons chopped crystallized ginger
6 cups thinly sliced pears (about 6 medium)

1 tablespoon water
4 teaspoons sugar


Recipe



1. Heat oven to 425°F. Make pie crusts as directed on box for Two-Crust Pie using 9-inch glass pie pan.
2. In large bowl, mix 3/4 cup sugar and the cornstarch. Stir in ginger to coat. Add pears; toss gently. Spoon into crust-lined pan. Top with second crust; seal edge and flute. Cut slits or shapes in several places in top crust. Brush crust with water; sprinkle with 4 teaspoons sugar.
