Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large ripe pears
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup low-fat plain yogurt
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Peel, core, and slice the pears into thin wedges. Place them in a mixing bowl.
Add the lemon juice, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the pears. Toss the mixture gently to combine and then transfer to a greased 9-inch baking dish.
In another bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, and brown sugar.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to blend the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the low-fat plain yogurt until combined, forming a crumbly dough.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the pear slices in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pears are tender.
Remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a dollop of low-fat yogurt or a scoop of low-fat ice cream.
