Ingredients
- 4 pieces ripe pears
- 100 grams dark chocolate (chopped or chips)
- 75 grams unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams rolled oats
- 75 grams light brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Step 2
Peel, core, and slice the pears into thin wedges. Place them in a medium baking dish.
Step 3
Sprinkle the lemon juice over the pears to prevent browning and enhance their flavor.

Scatter the chopped dark chocolate evenly over the pears in the baking dish. Set aside.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, light brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
Step 6
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using your fingers, rub the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 7
Evenly distribute the crumble mixture over the pears and chocolate in the baking dish, ensuring the fruit is well-covered.
Step 8
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
Step 9
Remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Step 10
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or custard for an indulgent dessert.
