Crumbleberry Pie

---

I got this recipe from a recent issue of taste of home. I haven't tried it yet, but i wanted to save it because it sounds good. I am thinking about substituting apples for the pears since i'm not crazy about pears. I'll have to see how that works. It is recommended to serve this pie warm.
