Something different than your Apple Crisp, but still delicious! This is a recipe I adapted from a Curtis Stone recipe when he had to show "Take Home Chef"

How To Make cinnamon, vanilla & pear crisp

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350.

Step 2

Put sugar and cinnamon in an 8 inch square baking dish, mix to distribute the cinnamon evenly. Add in the pears and toss to coat. Sprinkle vanilla extract over pears and mix.
Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar, oats and salt to blend. Using your fingers, rub the butter into the flour mixture until moist crumbs form. Mix in the almonds.
Step 4

Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the pear mixture. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the fruit is tender and the topping is golden brown.
Step 5

Let set for 10 minutes to cool slightly. Serve with vanilla ice cream if desired.
