Kickstart the new year with wholesome and hearty dishes designed with big flavours and fresh ingredients in mind, such as this Crunchy Crumble Pecan and Oat Baked Pears. Baked fruit, such as the pears used here, are naturally sweet and scrumptious. With a pecan and oat crunchy topping, this dessert gets inspiration from a caramel crumble and is balanced perfectly with mild and creamy Greek style yoghurt.

The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.
