INSTRUCTIONS
ORANGE GLAZE (OPTIONAL
Dissolve yeast in warm water for 5 minutes. In large mixing bowl, combine
yeast mixture, butter, 1/2 cup flour and salt; beat 5 minutes or until
smooth. Gradually beat in 1 cup additional flour to make a soft dough.
Knead dough on floured board, kneading in additional flour to make a
smooth, elastic dough. Roll dough into circle approximately 18 inches in
diameter; gently lift onto greased baking sheet. Gently toss pears with
orange juice and peel. Combine sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon; mix gently
with pears. Spoon pear mixture onto dough leaving 4 to 5-inch border. Lift
edges of dough up and over fruit, leaving a 5-inch circle of pears showing
in the center. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 to 35 minutes or until crust is
golden brown and pears are tender. Drizzle with Orange Glaze while still
warm.
