Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 pieces ripe pears, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for filling)
- 0.75 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced pears, cranberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour. Toss until the fruit is evenly coated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In another mixing bowl, prepare the crumble topping. Combine the rolled oats, 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.
Add the cubed cold butter to the dry topping mixture. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingertips to work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish, ensuring all the fruit is covered.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the crumble from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm on its own or topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for added indulgence.
