Description

A comforting dessert featuring tender pears and crunchy walnuts in a spiced oat topping. Warm and rustic, perfect for autumn or cozy evenings at home.


Ingredients

Scale

6 cups sliced fresh pears
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup old-fashioned oats
1 cup flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup softened butter
1 cup chopped walnuts


Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
In a bowl, combine sliced pears, lemon juice, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Arrange in the prepared baking dish.
In another bowl, mix brown sugar and oats.
In a separate bowl, cream softened butter with flour and brown sugar until crumbly.
Stir in chopped walnuts.
