- 6 ripe pears, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
- 2 tablespoons chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, gently toss the sliced pears with maple syrup, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Pour the pear mixture into an 8×8 inch baking dish.
- In a separate medium bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt.
- Add the cold butter cubes to the dry ingredients.
- Using a pastry blender or your fingertips, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the chopped nuts, if using.
- Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the pears in the baking dish.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pears are tender and bubbly.
- Let it cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special treat.
- Feel free to adjust the spices to your preference.
- If your pears are very ripe, they may release more liquid, which is perfectly fine.
