This All-American dessert is so easy to make and is always a crowd pleaser. From the Confident Choices Cookbook (adjust slightly... extra sugar!)
Ingredients:
1lb canned blueberries, drain and reserve half syrup
1lb canned pears, drained
1 1/2 Cups self-rising flour
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup butter
1 egg, beaten
1/3 Cup milk
Directions:
Place pears in a deep pie dish; add the blueberries, syrup, and 1/4 Cup sugar. Mix well. Mix flour, 1/4 C sugar and egg. Rub in margarine and add enough milk to make a soft dough. Spoon dough over fruit and sprinkle with extra sugar. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown. Serve hot with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
Oh I can't wait to try this! I've recently started replacing apples with pears in recipes, but this looks delicious!!

Niki this is a great dessert! I wasn't sure at first about the textures of the pears with the blueberries, but it was yummy and comforting. I baked one for my families Easter dinner and it was enjoyed by all.
ReplyDeleteI would also like to say thank you for all your recipes. Theyr'e truly an inspiration. I'm not sure how I would have survived without them these last few months. Life's been very hectic (at times difficult) since being diagnosed with IC. It's been a daunting task learning to to re-make my diet to heal my body, while working full time and taking care of my family. Again thank you for all you do. All of your work has been a true lifesaver.
