- 2 ripe pears, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Arrange the sliced pears in a small baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, oats, chopped walnuts, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Add the cold butter pieces to the dry ingredients.
- Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the pears.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pears are tender.
- Let it cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- You can add a tablespoon of chopped pecans along with the walnuts for extra flavor.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat.
- If your pears are very ripe, you might want to reduce the baking time slightly to prevent them from becoming too mushy.
