Pear Crumble

This week's Saturday Sweet is Pear Crumble.  This is the second dessert I recently made with some pears that we were given.  This is like a crisp so why it is called a crumble I do not know.

I liked this cold, but hubby liked it just barely warmed with a scoop of ice cream on top.  I just heated a serving in the microwave for about 30 seconds to warm it.

Pear Crumble
4 fresh pears; peeled, cored, sliced
2 T. flour
1/2 t. cinnamon; divided
3/4 c. flour
1/3 c. sugar
1/4 t. salt
1/4 c. butter
1/4 c. finely chopped nuts

Place pear slices in the bottom of a lightly greased 8" square pan. Combine 2 flour and 1/4 tsp. of cinnamon. Sprinkle over pears. Combine flour, 1/4 tsp. cinnamon, sugar and salt. Cut in butter and add nuts. Mixture will be crumbly. Spoon topping over pears. Bake uncovered at 350F for 30-35 minutes until pears are tender.  Serve slightly warm with ice cream or chilled.  Refrigerate leftovers.  Makes 6 to 8 serving.
