Glazed Pears With Brown Sugar Oat Crisp And Pear Brandy Syllabub Recipes

GLAZED PEARS WITH BROWN-SUGAR OAT CRISP AND PEAR-BRANDY SYLLABUB

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pears, sugar, flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, lemon zest and ginger. Mix in 1 tablespoon lemon juice and the vanilla.
• In a large skillet fitted with a lid, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the pear mixture and sauté for 2 minutes. Pour in cup water and bring to a boil. Cover and cook at a gentle boil for 20 minutes. Uncover and simmer, stirring every 10 minutes, until most of the liquid evaporates, about 40 minutes more. Add the remaining lemon juice and keep at a gentle boil, stirring occasionally, until the liquid becomes syrupy, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Make the crisp: In a large bowl, combine the flour, almonds, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or 2 forks, then mix the dough with your hands until combined and crumbly. Transfer to a small baking sheet and cook until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir the crisp, then let cool and break into pieces with a wooden spoon.
• Prepare the syllabub: Whisk the cream with an electric mixer until it starts to thicken. If using heavy cream, gradually pour in the sugar. Add the brandy, if you choose, one tablespoon at a time, tasting after each addition. Turn the mixer to high and whip to soft peaks.
• Assemble the dessert: in clear glasses, place a layer of pears, followed by a layer of crisp (about 1/3 cup each per serving). Top each with syllabub and dust with cinnamon. Or assemble in a large trifle bowl.

GLAZED PEARS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the lemon juice with 2 cups of water.
• Core the pears, slice them lengthwise into wedges, then chop into bite size pieces. Place the pears into the lemon water as your work, to prevent them from turning brown.
• Drain pears and pat dry with paper towels.
• In a large skillet, melt butter. Add the pears and cook over medium heat until the juices are released, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle the sugar over the pears, and keep cooking until the juices are absorbed, and the pears are glazed. Watch carefully so as not to burn the pears.
• Sprinkle pears with lemon juice and cook just a little longer. Taste and adjust with more lemon, if needed. Enjoy!

PEAR AND OATMEAL CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

• For the topping, in a bowl, stir together the flour, oats, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Drizzle in the melted butter tossing the ingredients with a fork to blend. Be careful not to over mix because you want a loose crumbly mixture, not a bound-together ball of topping. Sprinkle the topping over the pears.
• Bake for 30 minutes, until pears are tender and topping is browned. Serve warm with heavy cream or ice cream.
