Recipe
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

Alternate the apple and pear slices, arranging them in slightly overlapping in concentric circles. Sprinkle the fruit with the 2 remaining tablespoons (24 g) of sugar.
Bake for 15 minutes, reduce oven heat to 375°F (190°C), and continue to bake for another 30 to 40 minutes or until the fruit and crust are golden.
In a small saucepan, heat preserves. Brush over the top of the hot fruit. Cool pie before serving.
