Pear Crumble Pie

1/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 cups sliced peeled fresh pears
1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)

Crumble Topping
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons cold butter

In a large bowl, combine sugar and flour; add the pears and toss gently to coat. Spoon into pastry shell. In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over pie.

Bake at 400° for 45-50 minutes or until pears are tender and topping is golden brown. Cover edges loosely with foil during the last 30 minutes to prevent overbrowning. Cool on a wire rack. Makes 8 servings.
