Fresh Pear Pie


One of my friends gave me a lot of pears. I baked a pear pie and it was my first time to cook this recipe and surprisingly it turned out good. Hubby was the first one to eat a slice of it then I sliced one for myself. Hmmm...it was so good!!! Hubby requested another slice and also I got another one for myself. After tasting the outcome of my pear pie, I plan to cook it again next time. Here is the recipe for the

1 teaspoon lemon zest
5 cups peeled and sliced pears
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon lemon juice
