Ingredients

Chocolate Crisp Topping

  • 150 g flour
  • 100 g oats
  • 115 g butter
  • 50 g white sugar
  • 50 g brown sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 30 g walnuts chopped
  • 2 tbsps cocoa powder
  • 60 g chocolate chopped

Fruit Filling

  • 5 pears
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 60 ml carob syrup
  • 2 tbsp flour or cornstarch

Instructions

  • Chop the fruit to your liking and coat with the vanilla extract, carob syrup, cinnamon and flour. Place the fruit in a buttered dish.
  • In a bowl mix together all the ingredients except the butter and chocolate. With your hands rub in the butter and form clumps. Fold in the chopped chocolate.
  • Spread the clumps all over the fruit, making sure that the fruit is all covered. Bake the fruit crisp at 170°C for about 45 minutes or until all bubbly and golden.
  • When ready, let the crisp rest for about 20 minutes so that juices thicken. Whilst still warm serve the fruit crisp in a bowl topped with a generous scoop of ice cream.
