Ingredients:
Crust
1 box Pillsbury* Refrigerated Pie Crusts, softened as directed on box
Filling
3 ripe pears, peeled, cored, thinly sliced (about 3 cups/750 mL)
1 cup (250 mL) fresh blueberries
1 cup (250 mL) fresh raspberries
1 tbsp (15 mL) lemon juice
1/3 cup (75 mL) granulated sugar
3 tbsp (45 mL) cornstarch
Topping
1 cup (250 mL) old-fashioned or quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup (125 mL) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (125 mL) packed brown sugar
1 tsp (5 mL) ground cinnamon
1/2 cup (125 mL) butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup (125 mL) chopped walnuts, if desired
Vanilla ice cream, if desired
Kitchen Tips : Old-fashioned oats are larger than quick-cooking oats, but either can be used in this crisp. The old-fashioned oats give a little more texture and flavour to the crisp. Substitution : Frozen (thawed and drained) blueberries and raspberries can be substituted for the fresh berries.
