Coconut-Streusel Pear Pie From Healthy Cooking

Notes: I have not made this yet.

Pastry for single-crust pie (9 in.)
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
6 cups sliced peeled fresh pears
1 Tbsp. lemon juice

Topping:
3 Tbsp. sugar
3 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
4 1/2 tsp. cold butter
1/3 cup flake coconut

1. Line a 9-in pie plate with pastry; trim & flute edges. In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, flour & salt. Add pears & lemon juice. Cook & stir over medium heat for 4-5 minutes or until thickened. Pour into pastry.
2. For topping, in a small bowl, combine sugar & flour. Cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in coconut; sprinkle over top. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes or until filling is bubbly and topping is browned. Cool on a wire rack.
