Very delicious, and one of the easiest, no-fuss pies in the book. I've made this recipe twice now, and both times I chose it because I had plenty of other cooking to do. I have used the apricot glaze both times, as it adds a little bit of golden color and an un-identifiable extra flavor dimension. As long as you don't put on too much, the apricot flavor blends with the fruit rather than being noticeable on its own.
When I made the pear variation, I must have used a little more fruit or cut my slices a little large, because the pie took an extra 15" of baking to get the pears to be done. I covered the crust with pieces of foil during the extra baking time, as it was getting fairly brown.
