Ingredients

  • 2 large Bosc pears (about 1 lb./450 g)
  • ½ cup (125 mL) pomegranate juice
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) sugar
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) orange zest
  • ¼ tsp (1 mL) ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ tsp (0.5 mL) ground nutmeg
    Oat Crisp Topping:
  • ¼ cup (60 mL) all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup (60 mL) rolled oats
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) sugar
  • ¼ tsp (1 mL) ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ tsp (0.5 mL) ground nutmeg
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) chilled butter
    Optional:
  •  Vanilla ice cream

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Core the pears; cut in half. Cut the pear into slices with the Quick Slice.

  3. Combine the pears, pomegranate juice, sugar, flour, orange zest, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Place the mixture into the 1-qt. (1-L) Enameled Cast Iron Baker.

  4. For the oat crisp topping, combine the flour, oats, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Cut the butter into small cubes. Incorporate the butter into the flour mixture with a pastry blender or fork until it’s no longer floury and crumbs form.

  5. Evenly sprinkle the topping on the pear mixture; bake until oat crumble is slightly browned, about 20–22 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes. Serve with ice cream, if you like.
