PEAR COBBLER
A rustic batter is dropped onto fresh pears before being baked for a healthier dessert. Using less sugar than most recipes I've seen, the crisp flavor of the pears is highlighted. My family and I enjoy this at breakfast. I leave 1 or 2 of the pears unpeeled to add a bit of color.

- In a medium bowl, add cream cheese, sugar, flour, 1 egg and vanilla. Beat with a hand mixer until well blended and smooth. Set aside.

Gently fold the edge of the almond paste round over the edge of the filling. Transfer to the prepared baking sheets and repeat with the remaining almond rounds, filling and pears.
- Whisk together the remaining egg and 1 tablespoon of water in a small bowl until well blended. Using a pastry brush lightly brush each crostata with the egg wash and sprinkle each with the raw sugar.
- Put the baking sheets into the oven and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool. Serve each crostata on individual plates with a small scoop of ice cream and garnished with sliced almonds and mint.

ALMOND PEAR COBBLER
I took a regular cobbler recipe and mixed it up by replacing 2/3 of the regular flour with almond flour and subbing half of the sugar for splenda. I also leave out any sugar in the fruit since pears are a very naturally sweet fruit. Turns out great every time.

- The combination of the whole wheat and almond flour gives it a slight almond flavor and a very interesting consistency. I've also used coconut flour and it was very good as well.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm pears, such as Bartlett or Anjou, for the best flavor and texture in your cobbler.
- Toss the pears with lemon juice to prevent them from browning while you prepare the rest of the cobbler.
- Use a combination of all-purpose and almond flours in the crust to create a delicious and nutty flavor.
- Be sure to chill the crust dough before rolling it out, as this will help it hold its shape better.
- If you don't have a pastry blender, you can use two forks to cut the butter into the flour mixture.
- Don't overmix the topping, as this will make it tough.
- Bake the cobbler until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving, as this will allow the filling to set.

This almond pear cobbler is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
