Ingredients

• 6 medium-sized ripe pears
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 0.25 cups granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.75 cups rolled oats
• 0.5 cups brown sugar
• 0.5 cups all-purpose flour (for topping)
• 0.5 cups butter
• 0.25 cups chopped pecans (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Add lemon juice, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the pears. Toss gently to coat evenly.

Step 4

Transfer the pear mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 5

In another mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, brown sugar, 0.5 cups of all-purpose flour, and chopped pecans (if using).

Step 6

Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the oat mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to incorporate the butter until the mixture is crumbly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the pears.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Allow the crisp to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
