Ingredients

• 5 pieces ripe pears, peeled, cored, and sliced
• 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for filling)
• 0.75 cup rolled oats
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
• 0.5 cup light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced pears, cranberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour. Toss until the fruit is evenly coated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 3

In another mixing bowl, prepare the crumble topping. Combine the rolled oats, 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.

Step 4

Add the cubed cold butter to the dry topping mixture. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingertips to work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 5

Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish, ensuring all the fruit is covered.

Step 6

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.

Step 7

Remove the crumble from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm on its own or topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for added indulgence.
