Bake pie pastry at 425F for 10 minutes. Melt butter in a heavy skillet, add apple & pear slices & fry about 5 minutes. Stir in dried fruit. Blend almond milk with sandalwood, then stir into fruit mixture along with remaining ingredients. Pour into pie pastry, & bake at 350F about 35 minutes or until fruit is soft. The sandalwood tinges the fruit a reddish brown without significantly altering the taste. The almond milk is a thickening agent.
