How To Make "prickly pear and peach" walnut pie

• 
  Step 1
  Prepare this ahead of time. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/dessert/pie/sugar-and-spice-pie-crust.html?p=1
• 
  Step 2
  To prepare a prickly pear, either sand the outside of the pear or if you bought it in the grocery store, they already do this. I do not, so I run the risk of getting little thorns in my hand. You can wear a glove also, but I do not.
• 
  Step 3
  Cut the top and bottom of the pear and make an incision along the side, about a quarter if an inch deep. Peel off skin.
• Step 4
  Dice fruit. You may remove seeds, but they are edible. It will greatly reduce your amount of fruit, but I prefer to do so. It is not necessary.
• 
  Step 5
  In a mixing bowl, mix all the fruit ingredients in a bowl. Set aside for 20 minutes, allow the fruit to macerate and the flavors to marry.
• Step 6
  In a separate mixing bowl, add all the walnut ingredients, stir well.
• 
  Step 7
  In a greased pie dish, place the bottom of your crust. Then dump in all the fruit filling. Spread evenly. Top with the walnut layer.
• 
  Step 8
  Place the top of your crust on. Paint the exposed crust with egg white and sprinkle on additional turbinado sugar. I also did a Mickey Mouse motif and added orange sugar for the fall.
• 
  Step 9
  Cover entire pie with tin foil. Place in a a 350F oven for 30 minutes. Then remove foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until a nice golden brown pit crust is accomplished.
