Preparation

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.

Prepare the Pears

Wash, halve, and core the pears. Place them cut-side up in the prepared baking dish.

Cinnamon Infusion

In a small bowl, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon until well combined. Spoon this mixture over the cut sides of the pears.

In another bowl, combine the chopped walnuts, flour, and oats. Sprinkle this crumble mixture evenly over the pears.

Baking

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pears are tender and the crumble is golden brown.

Serving

Let the pears cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Other Important Considerations for Nutrition

For a lower sugar option, reduce the amount of brown sugar or use a sugar substitute. Adding spices like nutmeg or ginger can enhance the flavor without adding extra sugar. Consider using coconut oil instead of butter for a dairy-free option. Remember to consider any allergies related to nuts.
