Sometimes the best thing in life is fruit, simply baked and topped with some available crunch.
Made on Sunday to enjoy on Monday. Hello! I am glad you came by ...
Pear and Cranberry crumble
4 or 5 large very ripe pears
4 or 5 large very ripe pears
3 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup homemade cranberry sauce
2 flax seed or other crunchy type granola bars crushed up
light cream for the top
Peel and slice the pears. Smear 1 tablespoon of butter around a 7 inch pie plate. Arrange the pear slices around the plate. Spoon the cranberry sauce on top in a nice pattern. Cut up the remaining butter into dots and place on top. Finally sprinkle the crushed granola bars over the top of the fruit. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes at 350F and serve warm with a splash of cream over all.
This is such a great idea for your daughter, she will love it! And so will the rest of us... :)
