FRESH PEAR CRISP



Fresh Pear Crisp image

Mildred Sherrer's comforting fruit crisp is a pared-down version of one her mother used to fix. "I made it healthier by using reduced-fat margarine, fresh pears instead of canned and oats for some of the flour," she explains from Fort Worth, Texas. As a finishing touch, she suggests topping it with fat-free yogurt or whipped cream.

PEAR CRISP



Pear Crisp image

Choose Bosc pears that are ripe but still a little firm for the filling of this oat-almond crisp -- they'll stand up well to baking.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup light brown sugar

GOOD DAY PEAR CRISP



Good Day Pear Crisp image

Pie for breakfast? Not quite, but the fragrance of this dish is so good that even the groggiest grouch will be lured out of bed. Look for ripe pears with out bruises, and keep at room temperature overnight. Cut the butter in a thin slice off the stick for melting evenly.

Provided by Tracey Seaman

Time 20m

Yield Makes 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 of a ripe Bartlett pear
1 small lemon wedge
1 1/2 teaspoons dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon rolled oats
1/2 tablespoon chopped walnuts or pecans
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
Pinch of cinnamon
1 rounded tablespoon cottage cheese or plain whole milk yogurt, for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • 2. Halve the pear half and core; cut crosswise in slices and place in a 6-ounce custard cup. Squeeze the lemon on top, add the sugar, oats, nuts, butter and then cinnamon and bake for 20 minutes, until bubbly and golden and pears are soft.
  • 3. Let cool for 5 minutes and add a dollop of cottage cheese or yogurt.
  • In late summer, follow the recipe substituting a ripe nectarine, a plum or two, or a juicy pluot (plum and apricot hybrid), pitted and sliced, for the pear.
  • In autumn, use a small sweet-tart Royal Gala apple, but peel, quarter, and core the apple before slicing. Add dried cranberries, dried sour cherries, or raisins, as desired.

Tips:

  • Select the right pears: Choose firm, ripe pears that are not too soft or bruised. Bartlett, Anjou, and Bosc pears are all good choices.
  • Peel and slice the pears evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a variety of spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are all classic pear crisp spices, but you can also add cardamom, cloves, or allspice. Experiment until you find a combination that you like.
  • Don't overcook the crisp: The pears should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream: This is the perfect way to enjoy this classic dessert.

Conclusion:

Pear crisp is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and juicy pears, crunchy topping, and warm spices, it's a surefire hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give pear crisp a try. You won't be disappointed!
