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.

- Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream: This will make it even more delicious!
