Pear crumble

Method

Preheat oven to 180C. 

Place pear pieces into a microwave-proof oven dish, sprinkle with cinnamon and lemon zest and cover.  Cook on high for 5 minutes, or until just starting to soften. 

Combine flour and brown sugar in a separate bowl and rub the butter in with fingertips until it reaches a ‘crumb’ consistency. 

Place the crumb topping over the pear, patting down gently, and bake for 40 minutes or until bubbling.
