++++++++++++++++++ Combine the pears, orange juice concentrate and
lemon rind in a bowl and toss lightly. Arrange the pear mixture in
the unbaked pie shell. Prepare the Spicy Crumb Topping and sprinkle
over the pear mixture. Bake in a preheated 400 degree F. oven for 40
minutes or until the pears are tender. Cover loosely with aluminum
foil after 30 minutes if the top becomes too brown. Cool on a wire
rack before serving. SPICY CRUMB TOPPING: Combine the flour, sugar,
spices and salt in a bowl. Cut in the margarine, using a pastry
blender, until the mixture is crumbly.
