Move over, apples; it’s time to let pears shine. This pear crumble recipe is the perfect pear dessert<\/a> to highlight the sweet-tart flavor of fresh, ripe pears. Topped with a buttery crumble made from oats, nuts and warm spices, this simple dessert tastes incredible when served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. Place the pear slices in a greased 1-quart baking dish. Sprinkle them with lemon juice.<\/p>\n In a large bowl, combine the sugar, oats, flour, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Cut in the butter until crumbly. Then, stir in the nuts. Sprinkle the topping over the pears.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Keep the butter in the fridge until you’re ready to use it. Using extra-cold butter will help form big crumbles in the topping.<\/p>\n Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly.<\/p>\n Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. You can enjoy the leftover crumble cold, or reheat individual portions in the microwave for 30 seconds. To reheat a larger portion, warm the crumble in a 350\u00b0 oven for 20 minutes or until heated through.<\/p>\n Serve the pear crumble recipe warm or at room temperature with a generous scoop of vanilla custard ice cream<\/a> or a dollop of homemade whipped cream<\/a>. If you’re feeling decadent, add a drizzle of caramel sauce<\/a>.<\/p>\n To test the ripeness of most pear varieties, gently press the pear near the stem. The pear is ripe and ready to eat if it is slightly soft. One exception is the Asian pear\u2014it will still be firm to the touch but gives off a sweet, aromatic aroma.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" No time to make a pie?
