Crumble Topping:
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cups oats
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
2 sticks softened unsalted butter

Combine dry ingredients in a bowl, then work in butter with your hands. Chill.

Pear Filling:
1 1/2 lbs pears, peeled, cored and cut in 1-inch chunks
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp cinnamon
splash of brandy (optional)

Combine pears, butter, sugar, cinnamon and brandy in a saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened. Pour fruit mixture into a baking dish and generously sprinkle with crumble topping. Bake at 375 for 25 minutes, or until golden and bubbling. Serve with vanilla ice cream, if you wish.
