Honey Ginger Pear Custard Pie
Honey Ginger Pear Custard Pie is a delicious gluten-free pie, if you’re wondering how to make a crustless pie!

Friends, do you ever order pizza and invite people over for dinner? It’s such a simple way to host. You don’t have to “have it all together” in order to gather people in your home.
I’d rather serve pizza and sit around with some good beer or wine, and not worry about all the details of a meal, than miss out on a fun, hospitable moment. What about you?
I love investing in people and an easy way to start is with pizza and a good dessert!
How to make a crustless pie
This crustless pie recipe today, Honey Ginger Pear Custard Pie, might be the best dessert you’ve ever served. And, it’s great with pizza, because it’s not too heavy.
Quick and easy, the hard part is slicing the pear (and that is actually easy!). Mix the ingredients and pour into a pie plate, over the sliced pears. Bake and serve!
Don’t forget to spray the pan, because it will be tricky getting the pie out. We forgot to spray it the first time we made this recipe – oops. A little sticky.
Kitchen mishaps happen all the time in my kitchen, and this was probably my 10000th mistake. HA!
Order in pizza
Just call your friends and and say, “Hey, we’re ordering pizza to be delivered – want to come over and share it?” It always tastes better with friends, and they enjoy it, too.
Since I love to bake, I usually still find the time (and the enjoyment!) to throw something in the oven for dessert – even if it’s just brownies, cookies or a simple cobbler. Oh, and if you’re a pear lover, maybe try this Pear Puff Pastry Dessert (yum), or Cardamom Pear Blueberry Crisp (wow).
