Pear Pie

1 9-inch unbaked pie crust

2 pears, peeled, cored and cut in half

1 cup white sugar

1/4 cup butter, nut butter or coconut oil

1 Tbsp corn starch

1 Tbsp vanilla

2 eggs, beaten

Preheat oven to 350*F.

Place the pear halves cut side down in the pie crust with the small ends toward the center.

In a medium bowl, mix the butter and sugar together until smooth, then beat in the eggs one at a time until light and fluffy. Stir in the corn starch and vanilla. Pour over the top of the pears.

Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, until pears are soft and the custard is set in the center. Cool completely before slicing and serving.
