    List of Ingredients




    3 firm Granny Smith or other tart apples
    3 firm but ripe Red Bartlett pears
    2 1/2 tablespoons (37.5 ml) fresh lemon juice
    1/4 cup (48 g) sugar
    1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) ground cinnamon
    3 tablespoons (45 ml) no sugar added apricot preserves
    1 prechilled 9-inch (23 cm) unbaked pastry shell

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Peel and core the apples and pears; thinly slice. Gently toss with the lemon juice, 2 tablespoons (24 g) of the sugar, and the cinnamon. 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.
