How to Make Pear Caramel Crumb Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). If using a 9-inch pie plate, adjust baking time accordingly.
  2. Prepare your favorite 9 or 10-inch pie crust and place it in the pie plate. Crimp the edges decoratively.
  3. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar over the bottom crust, gently shaking the pan to distribute evenly up the sides.
  4. Sprinkle lightly with 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  5. Set aside.
  6. Peel, core, and chop 4 medium pears into 1/2-inch pieces.
  7. In a medium bowl, toss the chopped pears with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour.
  8. Gently pour the pear mixture into the pie crust and spread evenly with a spatula.
  9. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup pecan halves, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  10. Set aside.
  11. Warm 1 cup of pear cinnamon caramel sauce in the microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring until smooth and pourable.
  12. Drizzle the warm caramel sauce evenly over the pear filling, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
  13. Sprinkle the pecan mixture evenly over the caramel sauce.
  14. (Optional) Decorate the top with cutouts from leftover pie dough.
  15. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. A 9-inch pie may require less baking time.
  16. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. The filling will be very juicy, so allow ample cooling time.
