Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 13

For the topping:
2/3 cup flour (or sub whole wheat flour, gluten free all purpose flour or gluten free oat flour)
1/3 cup packed brown sugar (or sub coconut sugar)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (or pecans)
1/3 cup oats (gluten free if desired)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, melted (or sub vegan butter or coconut oil)
For the crisp:
6 medium Barlett pears, cut into 1/4th inch slices
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 tablespoon arrowroot or tapioca starch

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Generously grease an 8x8 baking pan or 9 inch skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • To make the topping: Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and walnuts in a large bowl until well-combined. Pour in the melted butter and use your hands to combine until the mixture becomes crumbly and resembles wet sand. You may need to use your hands/fingers to form into nice crumbles. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge until ready to use.
  • To make the filling: place pears, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla and arrowroot starch in a large bowl and toss to combine. Take 1/3 cup of the topping mixture and toss with the pear mixture. Place the pear mixture in a prepared pan and sprinkle evenly with the remaining topping.
  • Bake the crisp on a baking sheet (just in case the filling bubbles over!) for 45 minutes-1 hour, or until topping is golden brown and filling is bubbling. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack. Serve warm with your favorite vanilla ice cream or yogurt on top. Makes 9 servings.

FRESH PEAR CRISP

Mildred Sherrer's comforting fruit crisp is a pared-down version of one her mother used to fix. "I made it healthier by using reduced-fat margarine, fresh pears instead of canned and oats for some of the flour," she explains from Fort Worth, Texas. As a finishing touch, she suggests topping it with fat-free yogurt or whipped cream.
