Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful pears for the best results. Bosc, Anjou, and Bartlett pears are all good choices.
- If you don't have brandy, you can use another type of liquor, such as rum, whiskey, or bourbon.
- If you don't have golden raisins, you can use regular raisins or sultanas.
- Don't overmix the pie dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough.
- Be sure to chill the pie dough before rolling it out. This will help to prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
- Don't overfill the pie crust. If the pie is too full, it will be difficult to seal.
- Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the crust is cooked through.
- Let the pie cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the filling from running out.
Conclusion:
Pear raisin pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a pear raisin pie that is sure to impress your friends and family.
