Happy Veteran's Day and Happy Birthday to my dad! We went out for a traditional Japanese meal tonight so I decided on a dessert to make at home. I pre-read in the directions that it would take about an our to prepare and bake, but what I didn't see was that it wanted two hours to cool. TWO HOURS?! I thought that was a little crazy and I didn't have time for that. We managed to have our first bites before midnight so it still counted for today! It was quite tasty and the oat topping was delicious. When I served the dessert it was very runny underneath all the apples and pears, and I'm not sure if that was how it was supposed to be, but I used a slotted spoon to serve it so what we ate was not runny. I don't know if it would've been less runny if I would've let it sit for the entire two hours, but I did manage 1hr 15min and figured that should be enough. Regardless, still edible.
Things I learned from this recipe:
I've had no experience with pears and I learned that cutting them is just like cutting an apple.
Would I make this recipe again?
Yes
