Ingredients
Pear Filling:
- 2 lbs peeled and sliced fresh pears (about 4-5 large pears)
- 2 tbsp brown sugar packed
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Cinnamon Pecan Topping:
- 1 ¼ cups rolled oats
- ¾ cup brown sugar packed
- ½ cup whole wheat pastry flour (or all-purpose flour)
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
- ½ cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° and grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet or 8x8 baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the pears, 2 tbsp brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla. Toss until the pears are well-coated, then pour in the prepared skillet or pan.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the rolled oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt until well-combined. Add the cubed butter, working it in with a pastry cutter or fork until crumbly and well-combined. Stir in the chopped pecans.
- Top the pears with the cinnamon pecan topping evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the pears are soft and the topping is crisp and golden. Allow to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then serve with ice cream!
