Ingredients

2/3 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup Original Bisquick™ mix
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup firm butter or margarine
1 cup Original Bisquick™ mix
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 tablespoons boiling water
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
4 cups sliced peeled pears (about 3 medium)

Steps:

Heat oven to 375°F. In small bowl, mix oats, 1/2 cup Bisquick mix and the brown sugar. Cut in 1/4 cup firm butter with fork or pastry blender until mixture is crumbly; set aside.
In medium bowl, mix 1 cup Bisquick mix and 1/4 cup softened butter. Add boiling water; stir vigorously until very soft dough forms. In ungreased 9-inch glass pie plate, press dough firmly, using fingers dusted with Bisquick mix and bringing dough onto rim of pie plate. Flute edge if desired.
In 2-quart saucepan, mix pineapple juice, raisins, cornstarch, nutmeg and ginger. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute; remove from heat. Stir in pears. Spoon into pie plate. Sprinkle with topping.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until crust and topping are light golden brown.
