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.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a round 9x2-inch, 6-cup baking dish.
- Fill a large bowl halfway with water and add lemon juice. Peel all but 1 of the pears. Core and cut all the pears into eighths. Add pear slices to lemon water to keep them from browning.
- Combine egg and milk in a bowl and whisk until combined. Set aside.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, 2 tablespoons cane sugar, and brown sugar together in a separate bowl. Use a fork to cut cold butter into flour mixture until it resemble pebbles.
- Drain pears and put into a bowl. Sprinkle with corn starch and 1/4 cup cane sugar; toss to coat.
- Pour milk-egg mixture into the flour mixture. Mix batter until just combined. Add pears to the prepared baking dish. Drop batter by spoonful onto the pears.
- Bake in the preheated oven until browned on top, about 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

GLUTEN-FREE STRAWBERRY-PEAR COBBLER
I really enjoyed the distinctive taste of pear peeking through the tart sweetness of strawberries. I recommend using Spectrum's palm oil based shortening, as it's non-hydrogenated and has none of those much-maligned trans fats. Serve this cobbler alone or with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. I can't guarantee that this will work with other gluten-free flours, so stick to Pamela's Ultimate Baking and Pancake Mix if you can find it.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F In a medium bowl mix the sugar, cornstarch and nutmeg. Add berries and pears, and mix thoroughly until fruit is coated with the dry ingredients. Pour fruit mixture into greased 8x8" baking dish.
- In a large bowl, mix baking mix and salt. Cut shortening or butter into the baking mix, using your hands to mix until no large lumps appear. Add milk or milk substitute, and mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon (the mixture will not be completely smooth).
- Spoon batter over the top of the fruit, spreading over the whole dish. It will be thick, so use your hands to distribute it evenly. Leave a few small uncovered areas so that some of the liquid from the fruit can evaporate during the baking process. (Optional: Put a few pats of butter on the top of the cobbler before putting in the oven.) Shake a bit of cinnamon evenly over the top of the dough.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until knife inserted in biscuit topping comes out clean and the top has browned. Serve warm.

GLUTEN-FREE PEAR COBBLER
Rustic, gluten-free drop biscuits top fresh pears for an old-fashioned fall or winter treat suitable for celiacs. I use comice pears that are naturally very sweet and juicy even when firm to ensure natural sweetness that will maintain their shape after cooking.

Tips:
- Use ripe pears: For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy pears. Avoid pears that are hard or have bruises.
- Peel and core the pears: Before cooking, peel and core the pears. This will help to prevent the pears from becoming mushy.
- Use a variety of spices: To add flavor to the cobbler, use a variety of spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
- Don't overcook the cobbler: The cobbler is done when the crust is golden brown and the pears are tender. Overcooking will make the pears mushy.
- Serve the cobbler warm: The cobbler is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
