Kit's Kitchen is back! Thank you to a dear friend who asked me over a dinner date why she hasn't seen postings of my baking. My dear Cindy, this one is for you and to our OSM! global readers, enjoy this simple recipe. Since I was not counting calories, I tried it ala-mode. 'Twas the best.



*Three anjou pears, peeled, cored, and sliced in cubes
*1/4 cup warm water
*2 cuties, juiced
*1 cup all purpose flour
*1 cup brown sugar
*1 cup rolled oats
*1 T ground cinnamon
*1 1/2 stick salted butter

Preheat oven at 350 degrees F

Combine pears, cuties juice, warm water, and pour in a pie baking dish.

Combine in a bowl oats, flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Pour melted butter and stir to make crumbly mixture. Spread evenly on top of the fruit.

Bake 45 to 60 minutes until the topping is crisp and brown.
