Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium ripe pears (peeled, cored, and sliced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold, diced)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch square baking dish or similar-sized dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced pears, grated fresh ginger, lemon juice, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon of the flour. Mix gently to ensure the pears are evenly coated.
Transfer the pear mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In another bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, ground ginger, and salt.
Add the diced cold butter to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the mixture until it becomes crumbly and resembles coarse sand.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the pear mixture in the baking dish.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the pear filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let the crisp cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
