Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces ripe pears
- 100 grams dark chocolate (chopped or chips)
- 75 grams unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams rolled oats
- 75 grams light brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Peel, core, and slice the pears into thin wedges. Place them in a medium baking dish.
Sprinkle the lemon juice over the pears to prevent browning and enhance their flavor.
Scatter the chopped dark chocolate evenly over the pears in the baking dish. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, light brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using your fingers, rub the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Evenly distribute the crumble mixture over the pears and chocolate in the baking dish, ensuring the fruit is well-covered.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or custard for an indulgent dessert.
