Ingredients

• 6 ripe pears

• 0.33 cup brown sugar
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.

Step 2

Peel, core, and slice the pears into thin wedges. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add fresh ginger, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice to the pears. Toss well to coat and set aside.

Step 4

In a medium mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and salt.

Step 5

Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes, then use your hands or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the oat mixture until it forms a crumbly texture.

Step 6

Transfer the pear mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the pears, ensuring the surface is covered.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pears are bubbling.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
