Yesterday I shared the recipe for SPICED FALL PEARS. I love it. I have made 5 batches so far in 3 days. I mashed three of the batches and made pearsauce. I then froze it to enjoy later. Yesterday I made a batch for my grandchildren but used cinnamon instead of allspice. I was afraid the allspice might be too "spicy" for their young tastes. I left it in the slices, but if their parents decide to mash it, they still can. The batch I made today is still in slices. Either way, the taste is unbelievable.
This Pear Crumble is another recipe I recently found that is really good. I found the recipe in The Southern Heritage Just Desserts Cookbook.
1-1/2 cups gingersnap cookie crumbs
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
2 cups stevia or sugar
4 cups water
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 medium pears, peeled, cored, and sliced ( 4 cups)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray an 8 - inch square baking dish.
Combine 2 cups of stevia/sugar, water, and salt in a large saucepan; cook until stevia/sugar dissolves.
Add pears; bring to a boil over medium heat,
cover with a lid and reduce the heat and cook just until pears are tender - 15 to 30 minutes.
While the pears are cooking, combine the cookie crumbs and the melted margarine in a small bowl til crumbly.
Remove saucepan from heat and drain the pears, reserving 1/4 cup of the syrup.
Spread pears in baking dish and pour the lemon juice and the reserved syrup over top.
Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the pears.
Top with the cookie crumb mixture.
Bake for 25 minutes.
Spoon into individual serving dishes, and serve warm with ice cream.
