How to Make Cheddar Pear Pie
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, and 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
- Cut in ½ cup cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a large bowl, toss 4 medium pears, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced, with 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Add the brown sugar mixture to the pears and toss gently to coat.
- Pour the pear filling into a 9-inch unbaked pie crust. Sprinkle the cheddar crumble topping evenly over the filling.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let cool completely before serving.
