For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of bourbon or Calvados to the pear filling. If your pie crust edges are browning too quickly, cover them with strips of aluminum foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking. Use a variety of pear types for a more complex flavor profile. Bosc, Anjou, and Bartlett pears all work well. Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing to allow the filling to set properly.

Embrace the comforting warmth of autumn with this delightful pear pie. Infused with a delicate blend of cinnamon and a whisper of lemon zest, it's a simple yet elegant dessert that's equally satisfying on its own or complemented by a dollop of freshly whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
