Want a pie recipe? Simple raisin & pear pie with struesel topping.?

Question

Topping: Combine 2/3C quick oats, 1/2C Bisquick Original Baking mix, 1/3C packed brown sugar, 1/4C firm butter/margarine. Crust: any cook/no-cook pie shell. Filling: 1/2C pineapple juice, 1/2C raisins, 1Tb cornstarch, 1/8 tsp each ground nutmeg & ginger, 4C peeled sliced pears. Mix topping ingredients, set aside. In 2qt pot, add fillng ingredients except pears, stir constantly over med. heat until it thickens & boils. Boil 1' remove from heat, add pears, cool as you like (or have warm), spoon into crust, sprinkle topping. I like canned pears & graham cracker crust.

Update:

Eldorado, you could use diced apricots since you want a fruit that contrasts with the mellow pears, a little kick! Or buy a jar of mincemeat & pick out what you like best.

There is a tory behind me and raisins I'll tell ya sometime. Catch ya later. Oh yea, ever heard of a Dutch Oven? it is a way to bake outside over coals. It is an iron pot with a lid. Settlers used to use it on the trail. Heck, my grandmother used it in the summertime too.
