Cut the pear into 4 pieces, peel and remove the seeds.

Step 3
Remove the skillet from the heat and arrange the pear slices in a circle.

Step 5
Fold the edges of the pastry inward to create a border.
Step 6
Make a hole in the center for steam to escape.
Step 7
Prick the surface of the pastry all over with a fork to prevent it from rising during baking.

Place the pie in a preheated oven at 390°F. After 10 minutes of baking, reduce the temperature to 355°F. Bake the pie until golden brown.
Step 9
Invert the finished pie onto a plate.
