Make this easy brown sugar cinnamon pear crisp today. This recipe uses simple ingredients to create a delicious dessert with tender pears and a crunchy oat topping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium ripe pears, peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced pears, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss gently to coat the pears evenly.
  3. Spread the spiced pear mixture into the prepared baking dish in an even layer.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, rolled oats, and salt for the topping.
  5. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the buttery oat topping evenly over the pear mixture.
  7. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbly.
  8. Let the pear crisp cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a cranberry pear crisp variation, add 1 cup of fresh or frozen cranberries to the pear filling mixture.
  • If you want a crunchier topping, add 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the dry topping ingredients.
  • Serve this warm dessert with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a comforting treat.
