Ingredients
- 2/3 cup raw cane sugar divided
- 7 cups pear ripe, chopped, Bartlett variety
- 1/2 teaspoon salt divided, sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon lavender dried flowers
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup pecans or hazelnuts, chopped
- 1/3 cup butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Place the pears in a medium bowl and toss 1/3 cup sugar over them. Grind 1/4 teaspoon salt and lavender together in a mortar and pestle or spice grinder until fine. Sprinkle over pears along with the cinnamon.
- Mix pears with sugar and spices; transfer to a 8x8 or 9' round baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the panko, 1/3 cup cane sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pecans. Pour over the butter and mix to combine.
- Sprinkle the topping over the pears; place in the oven on the lower rack.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the pears in the centre are soft when pierced with a fork. Tent loosely with foil if the topping is browning too quickly.
- Remove from oven
Notes
- If the pears are still slightly green and hard (as mine were) you can still make the crisp. You may have to bake it for 10-15 minutes longer than the suggested time, that is all.
