A Journey into Thought & Spirit

Pears and apples are good anytime of year, but during the holidays a bit of spice flavors them like no other season. Baking these fall-harvest fruits makes for some of the best breakfast and desserts year round. There is something so familiar about these spices during the holiday season. It ignites the kitchen's aroma and brings a bit of heart and hearth into the home.

I found these handmade gingham aprons made for adults and children. The green apron is lively and as green as a Bartlett. Alongside some retro 1970's napkins, pears were the inspiration for something easy yet tasty. 

I've been introduced to cast iron skillets over the last year. I cannot believe it took me this long to discover them, but after the first use I love cooking with cast irons. I decided to try my first baking spree with a cast iron by making a pear crisp. I used the sugar and spice combination that I used in my 
Gluten Free & Vegan Cardamom-Spiced Pear Crostata recipe. 

​Simple and easy, I hope you enjoy a crisp baked in a different way!

Holiday Spiced Cast Iron Skillet Pear Crisp
Prep: 10 minutes
Baking: 25-32 min. 
Serves 2-4
Equipment - 8 in cast iron skillet

Filling Ingredients:
4 small pears, sliced
1 tbsp vegan butter melted
1 tbsp almond milk
2 tbsp sugar
½ tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp cardamom 
Pinch of clove
1 tsp corn starch

Topping:
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp flour
3 tbsp canola oil
1/4 tsp cinnamon
pinch of ginger powder
**If you want a thick crust topping, double the topping recipe.**

Directions:
​Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

Slice the pears and mix all of the filling ingredients together in a bowl. Pour the filling into an 8 inch cast iron skillet that has been sprayed or greased. 

In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients of the topping until well mixed. Next, add the wet ingredients and mix until the mixture is "wet" and there is no loose flour. Pour on top of the pear filling.

Bake in the oven between 25-32 minutes. Every oven varies so the crust  should be golden brown and the crisp should be fragrant. Serve warm!
