FRESH PEAR CRISP

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Pears: Use firm, ripe pears that hold their shape well when baked. Bartlett, Anjou, and Bosc pears are all good choices.
  • Slice the Pears Thinly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Baking Dish: Make sure there is enough space between the pears so that they can cook evenly.
  • Use a Combination of Oats and Flour: This will give the crisp a nice crumbly texture.
  • Add Some Spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are all classic pear crisp spices that add a warm, cozy flavor.
  • Top with Butter: Dotting the top of the crisp with butter before baking will help it brown and crisp up.
  • Serve Warm: Pear crisp is best served warm, right out of the oven. Top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special treat.

Renee's Pear Crisp is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet, juicy pears, crunchy oat topping, and warm, cozy spices, it's the perfect way to end a meal. So next time you're looking for a simple but delicious dessert, give this recipe a try.
