Baked Pear & Ginger Cobbler -Whole Grain Goodness image

This fresh and easy dessert (or breakfast) dish cooks up quick and tastes decadent, although it is very light and made with very little fat and whole grains for good nutrition no one will ever guess is in there! I combined two recipes from my great aunt and made healthy substitutions to make it very low in fat, filled with whole grain goodness and guilt free without sacrificing any of the taste.

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup old-fashioned oatmeal
1/4 cup canola oil
6 -7 ripe pears, sliced into 1/8-inch thin slices
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons sugar (optional)
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
1/8 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon white flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Prepare the crumble topping by combining the first six ingredients and blending with a fork until moistened.
  • Prepare the pears by peeling and then slicing the pears (discard the core) and tossing with lemon, white flour and if desired, the 2 tbsp of sugar. (I have made it without this added sugar, because my pears were nice and sweet by themselves).
  • Spray a shallow dish with butter flavored cooking spray, then layer the pears evenly. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the pears.
  • Bake about 30-35 minutes on center oven rack until the crumble is a golden brown.
  • This is best served slightly warm or at room temperature. I finish with a dollop of freshly whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream and watch it dissappear!
  • Enjoy and be blessed.

I'm not a fan of pears, but I actually really enjoyed this cobbler. The ginger flavor really shines through.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cobbler turned out really runny. Any tips?

The crust was a little dry, but the filling was delicious.

This cobbler was so good, I ate two pieces! And I'm usually not a big fan of cobbler.

The cobbler was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. My husband loved it though!

This cobbler was a delightful treat! The pears were tender and juicy, the ginger added a warm and spicy flavor, and the whole-grain crust was crispy and flavorful. I served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and it was the perfect ending to a deli
