Orchard Pear Pie
I made this pie using Bartlett pears fresh from the orchard. It's a lovely dessert to include in your fall menu. You can also use canned pears if fresh are not available.

Dough for single-crust pie
1 large egg, room temperature
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large ripe pears, peeled and chopped (about 4 cups)
TOPPING:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 cup cold butter
Directions:
On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400°.
In a small bowl, whisk egg, sour cream, sugar, flour, yogurt, vanilla and salt. Gently stir in pears. Pour into crust. Bake 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, for topping, in a small bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, pecans and cardamom. Cut in butter until crumbly; sprinkle over pie.
Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean and topping is golden brown, 15-20 minutes. Cover edge loosely with foil during the last 15 minutes if needed to prevent overbrowning. Remove foil. Cool completely on a wire rack. Store in the refrigerator.
