Ingredients
  

Crumble

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup gluten-free flour I use King Arthur's
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Filling

  • 2 medium pears cubed
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom
  • 1 teaspoon orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and place four 6-ounce round ramekins on a baking sheet.
  • Cube the pears into 1-inch pieces and put in a medium mixing bowl. Add the corn starch, ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, vanilla extract, and orange juice. Mix together.
  • Spoon the pear filling mixture evenly into the four ramekins. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, add the cold butter, almond flour, gluten-free flour, salt, and brown sugar. Use your hands to work the mixture until it looks like a crumbly mixture.
  • Use your hands to top each ramekin with ½ cup crumble.
  • Bake in the oven for 25 minutes. The crumble topping will be golden brown.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes before enjoying. Top with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream.

Notes

you can also use one large baking dish instead of individual ramekins. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes if you're using one large baking dish.
