Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

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

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Peel and cut pears into 1/2 to 3/4-inch pieces to yield about 7 cups.
  • 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).
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
