Pear-Cranberry Crumble-Crisp image

I created this to have a little bit healthier dessert and use some fresh pears I had. My family enjoyed it, and I wanted to post it before I forget! Make sure to use ripe, juicy pears. Great served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

3 large pears, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup fresh cranberries
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/8 cup packed brown sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4-1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • In a bowl, toss pears with cornstarch. Add in cranberries, vanilla and brown sugar and stir gently to coat pears. Pour into an 8x8 pan.
