Ingredients
  

4 ripe pears, peeled, cored, and sliced

2 cups fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/3 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Fruit Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced pears, raspberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Gently toss to coat the fruit evenly, then let it sit for about 10 minutes to release some juices.

      Make the Topping: In another bowl, mix together the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and milk, stirring until just combined. If using almond extract, add it in now for an extra layer of flavor.

        Assemble the Cobbler: In a greased 9-inch square baking dish, spread the fruit filling evenly across the bottom. Dollop the cobbler topping over the fruit, trying to cover as much surface area as possible. Don’t worry about making it perfect; the rustic look adds to the charm!

          Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.

            Cool and Serve: Remove the cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This dessert is delightful served warm and is best enjoyed with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
