Indulge in the warm flavors of this classic pear crisp, with juicy pears topped with a crunchy oat and cinnamon crumble. It's the perfect dessert for any occasion, and a comforting treat on a chilly evening.

Ingredients

  • 6 medium ripe pears, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced pears, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix well and transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  3. In another bowl, mix together the flour, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture is crumbly.
  4. Spread the oat mixture over the pears in the baking dish, covering them evenly.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pears are tender.
  6. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
