Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, add pears, cranberries, cornstarch, vanilla, and lemon zest. Gently stir and set aside.
  2. Heat a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add sugar and lemon juice, and cook, stirring frequently, until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium-high, bring to a boil, and continue boiling, without stirring, for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or just until mixture begins to turn golden brown.
  3. Immediately remove skillet from heat and stir in butter until melted. Carefully spoon fruit mixture evenly over the caramelized sugar.
  4. Unroll pie crust and place over the fruit mixture, tucking edges around the fruit along the inside of the skillet. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Let stand for 10 minutes, then carefully invert onto a flat, rimmed plate. Serve warm or at room temperature.
