Ingredients

For the topping:

  • 1/3 c. flour
  • 1/3 c. oats
  • 1/4 c. brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 3 teaspoons butter

For the blondies:

  • 1 stick salted butter softened
  • 1 1/2 c. flour
  • 1 c. oats
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons fresh ginger grated
  • 1 1/2 c. brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 large Bosc pears peeled, cored, and chopped

Instructions

  • In a small bowl combine the topping ingredients. Use your fingertips and rub the butter into the other ingredients until it resembles crumbs. Place in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place a sheet of parchment paper or foil in the bottom and up the sides of a 9 x 13 baking dish.
  • Place the butter in a small saucepan. Heat for 5-10 minutes or until the butter has browned. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl combine the flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and ginger. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl combine the brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix well. Add in the brown butter and mix until well combined.
  • Add the pears to the flour mixture and toss to coat. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix well.
  • Spread the blondie mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Smooth into the pan with a spatula.
  • Sprinkle the blondies with the crumb topping. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool completely on a wire rack. Cut into 24 squares and enjoy.
