Pretty yummy! I added blueberries and nutmeg. I didn't have ginger but it worked out just fine without it.

really yummy! Had a great pear to crumble ratio. I used ginger powder instead of candied ginger, but the ginger added a nice kick! Delicious with vanilla ice cream!

Some friends gave me 5 Asian pears from their tree...bought 3 Bartletts and made this. It was a great success, though I always have a problem getting the "crisp" crispy even though I added additional butter and baked longer. Next time will crank up the heat in the end to make it crispy and brown on top. GREAT dessert. Would make it again and add cranberries or blueberries or something else to make it interesting. Would like to cut the calories a bit, too. Vikki in WA

Very good. One thing: I had to cook longer than recommended––more like 45 mins in an oven that usually cooks too QUICKLY. Since I had hungry, tired guests, I decided to turn up the oven to 400 at the end. That provided a nice, crispy topping. Because I just used shredded ginger as opposed to crystallized, I added some extra sugar. Delicious with ice cream!

It took a while for hubby to give this a rating as he just kept shoveling more and more into his mouth. It's November and he willingly went out to our orchard to pick me a few of the remaining pears...and told me afterwards that there was still some left. I think that was a not so subtle hint. Can't remember when he last ate THAT much dessert at one time before and without the ice cream, it wasn't all that bad for him! First class recipe!!!

Yum, this was definitely a tasty pear crisp... but I wasn't a huge fan of the crystallized ginger... I also found that 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon was actually to much... I found it sort of over powering the peach... and I prefer a strong peach taste. Next time I make it, I think I will go for 2/3 to 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon and I would leave out the ginger all together.
