This pear and cherry crisp is a delicious mixture of sweet and tart. It’s an easy dessert to make for company.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds pears – peeled, cored, and chopped
- 1 (16 ounce) can pitted sour cherries, drained
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ¾ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 9 tablespoons butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish.
Step 2
Mix pears, cherries, cornstarch, 2/3 cup sugar, and almond extract in prepared baking dish. Combine flour, 1/3 cup sugar, salt, and nutmeg in a bowl; cut in butter with a knife or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle flour mixture over fruit.
Step 3
Bake in preheated oven until crust is golden, about 1 hour.
Cook’s Note:
I like to use canned pears and add extra cherries.
