This is quite possibly the most amazingly easy and wonderful dessert that I make to date-that EVERYONE goes nuts over. I have never had a bad review yet! It's simply perfect served warm over homemade vanilla ice cream-wonderful Christmas dessert! Ingredients:
7 firm pears, cut into 3/4-inch pieces (6 cups) |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
2 cups fresh cranberries |
1/3 cup granulated sugar |
1/2 cup flour (honestly- bleached works best) |
1/2 cup chilled butter |
1/4 cup granulated sugar |
1/4 cup light-brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon clove |
1 cup rolled oats |
1 pinch salt |
vanilla ice cream, for serving |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2. Peel and cut pears into 1/2 to 3/4-inch pieces to yield about 7 cups.
3. In a medium bowl combine pears, 2 cups cranberries, 1/3 cup sugar and lemon juice, and toss; pour into a 9x13-inch pan or 3 quart baking dish (or divide into 8 ramekins).
4. In food processor, chop butter till pea size clumps form, add oats, granulated and brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, flour and pulse till large moist clumps form.
5. Spoon the 'topping' over the fruit and bake until the topping is brown, crisp, and the fruit mixture is bubbling. About 1 hours 15 minute.
6. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
