Pear, Cranberry, and Gingersnap Crumble
February 14th, 2012
I’m not a huge fan of pears, cranberries, or gingersnap cookies, for that matter…but somehow all of them together (with a brown sugar/butter crumble on top) are magic. A few weekends ago, a group of our friends held a get-together that we’ve since deemed “Thanksgiving, Again,” since it’s essentially the same meal as the traditional holiday, only in January. We were in charge of brussel sprouts and dessert and since I wanted it to feel thematic without baking a pumpkin pie, I went with this recipe. I served it up in individual cast-iron servers, since everything’s cuter in miniature sizes, and despite our tryptophan-induced food comas, everyone managed to finish their portion with ease.
I made this last night after seeing it here. Unfortunately no fresh cranberries available near me in Northern Virginia. However, I can proudly say that with dried cranberries I think the end result was pretty close to perfection! Thanks for sharing!
I love the idea of Thanksgiving, round two! Love the dessert and those individual serving dishes!

Cute video! However, we don’t expect you to be “on” all the time and always on your blog or on twitter. People are starting to have a warped view of how readers view bloggers.
This looks fabulous!

I wonder what the calories are in this dessert. But what the heck! I might make this tonight.

How yummy! I’m definitely going to use this recipe!
That looks amazing! I love mixing and matching fruit in galettes, but crumbles are an excellent idea too.
I LOVE your blog! I was wondering if you could write about my blog and maybe tell people to visit it? Your posts are so inspiring when it comes to clothes!
Luv& Hugs

I am a fan of all those ingredients so this recipe is a must try. I also absolutely adore those mini cast iron servers!!! My biggest question though is how did you clean up afterwards while maintaining the integrity of the cast iron? I’ve only seen maintenance for what seems like only savory dishes cooked in cast iron so I’m curious for the sweet approach.
