Pear Crumble
Pear Crumble is an old-fashioned dessert with a layer of cinnamon spiced pears baked with a buttery, oat crumble topping. Easy to make and especially great served with a scoop of ice cream!
Equipment
- mixing bowls of various sizes
- 8" or 9" baking dish
Ingredients
- 4 cups peeled & diced fresh pears
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the 4 cups peeled & diced fresh pears, 2/3 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon . Stir until all of the pears are coated with the cinnamon and sugar. Place pears in an even layer in a greased 8" or 9 " baking dish.
- In a separate mixing bowl, stir together the 3/4 cup packed brown sugar, 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup old-fashioned oats, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir in 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and mix until combined.
- Sprinkle crumble topping evenly over the pear layer. Bake @ 350°F 40-45 minutes, until bubbly around edges and crumble topping begins to crisp. Serve warm.
Notes
- Bosc, Anjou and Bartlett pears are all great varieties for baking. You want to choose ripe pears that are a little more on the firm side, as an over ripened pear will easily fall apart when baking.
- Serve the pear crisp with a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of caramel or butterscotch sauce.
- Store refrigerated for up to 72 hours.
