Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 2 pounds pears - peeled, cored, and chopped

  • 1 (16 ounce) can pitted sour cherries, drained

  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch

  • cup white sugar

  • ¼ teaspoon almond extract

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • cup white sugar

  • ¾ teaspoon salt

  • ¾ teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 9 tablespoons butter

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish.

  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.

Cook's Note:

I like to use canned pears and add extra cherries.
