How to Make Apple Pear Crumble Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the crumble topping: In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups vanilla wafer crumbs, ½ cup packed brown sugar, and ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter. Mix until well combined.
  3. Place a 9-inch pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate on a baking sheet.
  4. Gently spread 4 ounces of softened cream cheese evenly across the bottom of the pie crust. Work carefully to avoid tearing the dough.
  5. Sprinkle half of the crumble mixture over the cream cheese layer.
  6. In a large bowl, combine 1 medium apple (peeled, cored, and sliced), 1 medium pear (peeled, cored, and sliced), ¼ cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Toss gently to coat.
  7. Pour the fruit mixture into the pie crust over the crumble layer.
  8. Top with the remaining crumble mixture.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the fruit is tender and the topping is golden brown. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, loosely cover with aluminum foil after 25 minutes.
