Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Cut pear into small chunks. Roughly chop flaked almonds. • In a medium baking dish, combine pear, the brown sugar and a drizzle of water.
TIP: For a more traditional crumble, peel the fruit before cutting into chunks.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, add the butter and microwave in 10 second bursts until melted. • To the melted butter, add classic oat mix and dark chocolate chips, stir to combine. Sprinkle crumble mixture evenly over pear mixture. • Bake until topping is golden and fruit is tender, 25-30 minutes. • In the last 5 minutes of cook time, sprinkle flaked almonds over crumble and bake until toasted.
TIP: The pear is cooked when you can pierce it easily with a fork.
• While the crumble is baking, place cream (see ingredients) in a large bowl and whisk with electric beaters until soft peaks form and almost doubled in size, 1-2 minutes. Set aside.
TIP: If you don't have electric beaters, use a metal whisk and whisk for 3-4 minutes. TIP: Chill both your bowl and cream before whipping to get maximum volume.
• Divide pear and choc-chip crumble between bowls. • Serve with a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
