Perfect at the end of a fall meal. Top the dessert with sweetened whipped cream, or team it with scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients:
1 cup unbleached all purpose flour
2/3 cup old-fashioned oats
2/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 pounds firm but ripe pears, peeled, cored, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons minced crystallized ginger
1 1/2 tablespoons unbleached all purpose flour
Directions:
1. Make topping: Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Mix first 5 ingredients in medium bowl. Add butter and rub in with fingertips until moist clumps form.
2. Make filling: Combine pear slices and lemon juice in large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and toss to blend.
3. Transfer filling to prepared dish. Sprinkle topping over. Bake crumble until pears are tender and topping is golden brown and crisp, about 45 minutes. Cool at least 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
