                      | My dad has a pear tree that is loaded with pears. He brought me a box full and I was struggling to keep up with eating the ripe ones, so I made a pear crumble. Oh my gosh it was delicious! My family has already devoured the whole dish, so I will be making another one tonight with my remaining pears. 
  
 What do you make with your pears?

                      | Krista, your pear crumble is beautiful. 
 Like you I was given some pears and I made pear butter. One batch with spices and one with real maple syrup.

                      | Sara, pear butter sounds delicious. I think I would like the spiced one better. Next year when I get loaded with pears again I am going to try some pear butter. Thanks for the idea.

                      | I saved some of my pears to make something like this - can you share the recipe?   It looks amazing.  I just canned the rest of mine in light syrup for enjoying this winter.  I've never made pear butter before, but I did make some peach butter last year - it's really yummy.  Maybe I'll try some pear butter next year too :)

                      | I didn't have enough pears so my pear to crumble ratio was a bit off, but it tasted delicious!  I put the recipe in my recipe box so I can try it with apples in the next week or so.  Thanks again for sharing.

                      | I realize I’m way behind here, but I picked up two boxes of pears from Costco last week to put up some canned pears. I will also make a number of loaves of pear bread to go in the freezer. The recipe is from a favorite cookbook on my shelf, The Art of Quick Breads by Beth Hensperger. It’s  actually called Pear Bread With Vanilla and Ginger, and showcases crystallized ginger nuggets. Absolutely the best fruit bread recipe I have found and a favorite winter dessert. 
 Krista, thanks for the recipe, I’ll make a pan of cobbler too!

                      | Sara, thank you for sharing! Pear bread sounds yummy, especially the one you are talking about! I will have to make me some next year with all the pears from my dads tree. Let me know what you think about the pear crumble. I wish I had some right now. It's delicious!

                      | Krista, I made my canned pears in a light syrup, 7 pints, and two loaves of pear bread. I was left with only 3 pears for the cobbler so I did dice up three small apples to stretch it out. It turned out great! I especially love the almond topping! I will save that recipe to use on other cobblers and pies, especially keto recipes which I collect for my son who has epilepsy. Thank you again for the inspiration! |

                      | Sara, I'm glad you liked it. I didn't think of combining the pears and apples but that sounds really good. Now I will have to try that too. I am not familiar with keto or it's recipes, so I wasn't awear it was keto friendly. I'm happy to hear it can be used as a recipe for your son. I'm sure he will enjoy it just as much as the rest of us!

                      | Sara, I'm not sure that pear cobbler recipe qualifies as keto. Pears, sugar, and flour are carbs and not keto.

                      | Lol! Winnie you are right!  I was referring only to the crumble topping. Substituting almond flour for wheat and any one of the sugar substitutes . It might come in handy down the road, maybe on winter squash? 
 Happy thanksgiving all!

                      | I would have never thought to add the topping to squash. Very interesting. It might taste really good. The topping is really delicious and could be eaten alone lol! If you try it on other foods let me know! I'm curious how they would taste!
