Equipment

• Saucepan
• Baking dish

Ingredients

• 4 pears peeled and cored
• 1 tbsp dark brown sugar
• Juice of 1/2 lemon
• 1/2 tsp ground ginger
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 3 kiwis – we used Zespri SunGold kiwis peeled
• 200 g plain flour
• 100 g caster sugar
• 100 g chilled butter cubed
• Optional: Mixed nuts and seeds

Method

• Pre-heat the oven to 200°C
• Roughly chop the pears and add to a saucepan with the dark brown sugar, lemon juice, ground ginger and ground cinnamon. Add a splash of water to the pan and heat gently.
• Over a low heat, heat the mixture until it starts to bubble, the sugar has dissolved, and the pears have softened. If needed add a splash of water to make sure the mixture does not burn.
• Roughly chop the Zespri SunGold kiwis and add to the pan, stirring to coat them in all the sticky sugary mix.
• Take off the heat and pour into a baking dish.
• Make the crumble topping: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and caster sugar. Add the cubed butter and using the tips of your fingers, rub the butter through the flour mix to form a breadcrumb like consistency. Be careful not to overwork it or the crumble will become heavy.
• If using, roughly chop a selection of mixed nuts and seeds and stir through the crumble mix.
• Spoon the crumble mix onto the top of the baking dish and bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes until golden brown and bubbling.
• Serve warm with ice cream, cream or custard.
