4 Mediumsize Anjou pears,

1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
One fourth teaspoon Ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon Lemon juice
One half cup Water
1 cup Sugar

One half cup Butter, or margarine
Whipping cream (optional)

Place pears in a greased 8inchsquare baking pan. Sprinkle with cinnamon,
nutmeg, lemon juice, and water; mix lightly.

In a mediumsize bowl, mix sugar and flour. Using a pastry blender or 2
knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; evenly scatter
crumbs over pear mixture. Bake in a 350 degrees oven until fruit is tender
when pierced and crust is lightly browned, about 1 hour. Offer cream to
pour over individual portions.

This recipe appeared in a 1949 issue of Sunset. Pears or apples are lightly
