This pear custard pie recipe may become my go-to fall recipe. I loved the creaminess of the custard and the slight crunch from the pears. With the cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg you have all my favorite fall spices in one dessert. I tried this warm and chilled - it was delicious both ways.
Tip: It's best to use a deep dish pie crust for this pie and a pie shield for the crust.
