Pear Chocolate Crumble with Oats

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a medium bowl, toss the cubed pears with maple syrup, cinnamon, and cornstarch until every piece is evenly coated.
3. Fold in the dark chocolate chunks gently and transfer the mixture into a 9-inch baking dish, spreading the pears evenly.
4. In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, coconut sugar, and salt.
5. Add the cold, cubed butter and use fingertips to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse, wet sand with a few pea-sized lumps.
6. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the pears, pressing down very lightly.
7. Bake for 35–40 minutes until the fruit is bubbling around the edges and the topping is a deep, mahogany-gold color.
