A Winter Crumble

It is definitely winter here in Kansas. It has snowed twice. It is below freezing nearly every night. I have goosebumps 90% of the time. I think snow is beautiful, but cold weather in general is not my thing...at all. Stay warm, everyone!

CRANBERRY PEAR CRUMBLE
Easy, delicious and healthy. Serves two.

For the filling...

  • 1 ripe pear
  • ½ cup cranberriea
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 tsp. maple syrup
  • ¼ tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • ¼ tsp. cinnamon

For the topping...

  • ¼ cup GF oats
  • 1 tsp. maple syrup
  • ½ tsp. cinnamon
  • turbinado, for sprinkling

In a skillet, sautee the cranberries and water until the berries are soft (see photo above.) Remove any leftover water. Add the other ingredients and heat for a couple of minutes. Spoon the fruit into two ramekins. In a small bowl, stir together the topping ingredients and spread over fruit. Bake at 300°F for approximately 5 minutes, or until the granola topping is lightly browned.

Those pictures are beautiful. I'm sorry it's so cold though! It was 12 degrees here earlier this week and then 70 today. Texas is weird like that!
That's the healthiest crumble I've seen!

Hey Harriet  

I hope that yummy looking crumble warmed you up a little bit at least. Sorry it's so cold. Like you, I'm not a fan of winter either. If I could possibly bottle up some of my summer weather right now & send it your way I would!
