Pear Crumble

Pear crumble is a delightful dessert from European cuisine that combines the softness of baked pears with a crunchy topping made of oats and flour. Originally, crumble emerged in England during World War II when food restrictions led housewives to create simplified pies. Here, 'Conference' pears, known for their sweetness and juiciness, enhance the dessert's flavor while cinnamon adds warmth and a spicy aroma. Crumble pairs perfectly with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of thick cream, creating a harmony of textures. It can be served as a sweet breakfast or an elegant end to dinner. Its simplicity in preparation and rich flavor make this dessert a favorite any time of year.
