Most ingredients in this pears caramel pie are leftover that I need to use up before I go on vacation, I even use store bought pie shell, to make quick and easy. I have lots of fresh pears from my friend,and homemade kumquat candied in the fridge that I almost forget it's been there awhile :) so I add them to the pie as well. kumquat candied in this recipe is optional,but it taste really well together,maybe you can substitute with any little bit fruits candied for a taste. Ingredients: - 1 9" pie shells ( homemade or store bought ) - 3 Tbsp dulche de leche / caramel - half lemon juice - lemon zest - 4-5 pears - 1/4 cup kumquat candied ( optional ) - 2 Tbsp butter ( melted ) - 1/2 Tbsp sugar Preparations : preheat oven on 350 F peel the pears, slice round and core the seeds in a small bowl, mix caramel/dulche de leche with lemon juice and zest, stir until smooth and combine brush pie shell with melted butter spread caramel mixture on pie
