Instructions

  1. Make the crust — this will make a double (thicker) crust:
    • Blend the lard and dry ingredients in a bowl with your fingers (or a pastry blender) until you have very small crumbs.
    • Gradually stir in water until you have a stiff dough.
    • Roll out on a floured board.
  2. Mix the pear filling well.
  3. Bake in a double pie shell at 375°F for 1 hour.
