Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. In small bowl, mix oats, 1/2 cup Bisquick mix and the brown sugar. Cut in 1/4 cup firm butter with fork or pastry blender until mixture is crumbly; set aside.
  • 2
    In medium bowl, mix 1 cup Bisquick mix and 1/4 cup softened butter. Add boiling water; stir vigorously until very soft dough forms. In ungreased 9-inch glass pie plate, press dough firmly, using fingers dusted with Bisquick mix and bringing dough onto rim of pie plate. Flute edge if desired.
  • 3

  • 4
    Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until crust and topping are light golden brown.

  • Pears rock hard? To speed up the ripening process, place them in a paper bag with an apple. Pierce the bag in several places with the tip of a knife, and leave at room temperature.
  • Serve this streusel-topped pie warm topped with slices of Cheddar cheese cut into pear or heart shapes.
