Pear and Apple Pie
Fine lining paste is the pastry for my fruit pie. This pastry can be used for cooking savoury pies too.
Today I used a combination of fresh pear and apple as the pie's filling.
This pear and apple pie is so delicious but light, you can have second helping without feeling guilty. Have the recipe a go, make the pastry and you will have fun; enjoy the pie.
