PEAR CRANBERRY PIE
Steps:
- For the crust
- Place the butter, shortening and cranberry juice into the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour salt and sugar by pulsing 3 to 4 times. Add the butter and pulse 5 to 6 times until the texture looks mealy. Add the shortening and pulse another 3 to 4 times until incorporated.
- Remove the lid of the food processor and sprinkle in 5 tablespoons of the cranberry juice. Replace the lid and pulse 5 times. Add more cranberry juice as needed, and pulse again until the mixture holds together when squeezed. Weight the dough and divide in half. Shape each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
- Peel and core the pears. Slice into 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick wedges. Toss all of the pears with 1/4 cup of the sugar, place in a colander set over a large bowl and allow to drain for 1 1/2 hours.
- Transfer the drained liquid to a small saucepan, place over medium heat and reduce to 2 tablespoons. Set aside to cool. Toss the pears with the remaining sugar, cranberries, tapioca flour, jam, cranberry juice, lemon juice, salt and nutmeg.
- For assembling and baking the pie:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Remove 1 disk of dough from the refrigerator. Place the dough onto a lightly floured piece of waxed paper. Lightly sprinkle the top of the dough with flour and roll out into a 12-inch circle. Place into a 9 1/2 to 10-inch tart pan that is 2 inches deep. Gently press the dough into the sides of the pan, crimping and trimming the edges as necessary. Set a pie bird in the center of the bottom of the pan. Place the pears into the unbaked pie shell in concentric circles starting around the edges, working towards the center and forming a slight mound in the center of the pie. Sprinkle the cranberries a little at a time as you go.
- Pour over any liquid that remains in the bowl. Roll out the second pie dough as the first. Place this dough over the apples, pressing the pie bird through the top crust. Press together the edges of the dough around the rim of the pie. Brush the top crust with the reduced juice everywhere except around the edge of the pie. Trim excess dough. Place the pie on a half sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake on the floor of the oven for 30 minutes. Transfer to the lower rack of the oven and continue to bake another 20 minutes or until the pears are cooked through but not mushy. Remove to a rack and cool a minimum of 4 hours or until almost room temperature.

Tips:
- To ensure your pie crust is flaky and golden, use a combination of butter and shortening. The butter adds flavor, while the shortening helps create a tender, flaky crust.
- Don't overwork the pie dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
- Chill the pie dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
- When filling the pie, don't overfill it. Leave about 1/2 inch of space around the edge of the pie crust so that the filling doesn't bubble over.
- Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the crust cooks evenly.
- Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
Conclusion:
Pear pineapple pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, sweet and tangy filling, and creamy topping, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give pear pineapple pie a try!
