What you'll need...

  • 1 kg conference pears
  • 250 g blackberries
  • 100 g plain flour
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 150 g light brown sugar
  • 100 g rolled oats
  • 100 g unsalted butter (cubed)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla essence

Method

  3. Heat the oven to 190°C / 170°C Fan / gas mark 5.

  1. In a large bowl add the flour, oats and butter and using your fingertips, rub together until the mix looks like breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar and combine.

  3. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and serve warm with custard or vanilla ice cream.
