Pantry Recipes: Canned Pear Crisp with Oat Streusel Topping

The finished product!

Step 1: Open up pantry. Take out canned pears, and let the fun begin.

Ok, so here's the rest:

Ingredients:

• 8 x 8 baking dish
• 1 16 oz. can of canned bartlet pear halves (cube them)
• 1/2 tbsp. flour
• 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
• 1/8 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice
• Cooking spray

For the topping:

• 1/4 cup flour
• 1/2 cup regular oats
• 1/8 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/16 tsp. ground cinnamon
• Dash of salt
• 1/8 cup chilled butter, cut into small pieces

How to:

1. Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease the baking dish or spray with cooking spray.
2. Cube the pears, mix with the 1st set of ingredients. (the topping comes later)
3. Mix together all ingredients for the topping. You will need to beat or mix thoroughly the butter, so that the final product is a coarse texture.
4. Put the pear mixture into the baking dish and sprinkle the topping evenly on top.
5. Cook for approx. 15 minutes. (or until topping is browned and the pears are bubbling--don't over cook this one)
6. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve with a spoonful or two of plain or vanilla yogurt, or vanilla ice cream--if you can't resist. ;)
