Discover the ultimate comfort dessert with our Pear Apple Oat Thing—a warm, fruity bake that’s as delightful as its playful name suggests. This rustic recipe combines tender pears and apples tossed with a touch of honey and lemon juice, layered beneath a buttery oat crumble infused with cinnamon and vanilla for a cozy, aromatic flavor profile. Ready in under an hour, this easy-to-make treat is baked to golden perfection, bubbling with natural sweetness.

Packed with wholesome rolled oats and spiced fruit, this dish is your go-to for a simple yet impressive fall dessert.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped pears and apples. Add the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of honey to the fruit and toss to coat evenly. Set aside.
In another bowl, mix the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt until combined.
Add the melted butter, vanilla extract, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey to the oat mixture. Stir until the mixture becomes crumbly.
Spread the coated pear and apple pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the oat crumble mixture over the fruit layer, making sure it covers the fruit evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling at the edges.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as is, or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of yogurt if desired.
