I've been serving this simple but elegant dessert for many years, after a friend shared the recipe, I especially enjoy baking yummy desserts. I guess it's in the genes--my grandfather came over from Norway and started a bakery in a small Minnesota town. -Kris Bailey Villand, Minnesota

I've made this pie several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The bread pudding filling is so rich and creamy, and the pears add a nice tartness. The crust is also perfect - flaky and buttery. I love that this pie can be made ahead of time, m
