faultlessrecipesfilling:
5 ripe bosc pears
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp cardamom
(alternatively, try 2 tsp apple pie seasoning)
topping:
1 stick of butter
1/4 c brown sugar
1/3 c white sugar
1 1/2 c chopped pecans or walnuts
1/2 c rolled oats (the "old fashioned" kind)
Preheat oven to 375°. Quarter & core the pears, and roughly chop them into a large pot. Cook over medium for 7-10 mins until softened & some of the juices have released. Add spices, stirring to coat the pears. Transfer to an 8" x 8" baking dish prepared with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
While the pears are cooking, melt the butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the sugars, chopped nuts, & oats. Stir well.
Scatter the topping over the pears and bake for 20-25 mins until the topping is browned and the pears are bubbly. Remove, let cool, and serve plain or with ice cream.
Alternative: try making more topping and mixing it in with the fruit filling before baking.
