How to Make Cranberry Pear Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, gently combine 2 medium ripe pears (peeled, cored, and diced), 1 cup fresh cranberries, 1/2 cup dried cranberries, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon ground ginger.
  3. Pour the cranberry-pear mixture into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  4. Top with your second pie crust, crimping the edges to seal. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  5. Brush the top crust with 1 tablespoon of milk or cream for a golden brown finish.
  6. Bake for 10 minutes at 425°F (220°C), then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  7. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set.
  8. Serve warm or at room temperature with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional).
