I added blueberries to mine. It was yummy, but why wouldn't fruit and oats be yummy? I wish that the crisp part on top were more solid. Mine ended up loose and much like it was when i put it in the pan.

Oh my, this is soooooooooo good! I doubled the ginger and also added some chopped toasted almonds and hazlenuts to the oats mixture. I also subbed 1/3 of the pears for chopped apples and it was so delicious.. I had it with fresh cream as I didn't have any ice cream on hand, I can't wait to make it again!!

Good basic recipe. I also added some dried cranberries which gave a nice boost of color. I did not increase the ginger, but will do so next time. Very yummy way to use extra pears.

Super yummy, everyone loved it! I used half Bartlett, half Anjou pears - made for a nice contrast Also, I added a little allspice and a bit extra ginger to both the pears and topping. Since some said the pears were slightly dry, I added about 2 tbsp pear butter as well - delicious! Will definitely make again! :o)

Delicious! I thought the amount of ginger was just right without increasing it. I added a handful of dried cranberries to the pear mixture and that was a wonderful touch of tang and color.

I did as others who reviewed this recipe suggested and doubled the amount of crystalized gigner in both steps. I also added about 1/4 tsp. ground ginger and 1/4 tsp. allspice. I also added an additional tablespoon of butter to the oatmeal/flour topping. I think these changes really made the difference. We enjoyed this recipe. It's a nice change from the typical apple cobblers and crisps.

I skipped the ginger, because I'm not a fan of it, and this came out very tasty. I would use less cinnamon next time to have more pear taste.

After reading the other reviews, I used much more crystallized ginger (about 3 tablespoons). Loved the taste - the ginger and pears go together very well. However, I felt it was too dry. I might try this with more butter and less flour combined with the pears.

I would have liked to see more "juice" with the pears. It was very dry without the vanilla ice cream. Also I doubled the ginger.

The pairing of fresh pears and crystallized ginger are simply beautiful! A classic,"comfort" dessert, with enough elegance to serve for company. I had misplaced a similar recipe years ago, and I was so happy to find yours, Jayda. Thank-you! (I did increase the amount of finely chopped crystallized ginger to a full Tbsp for each tsp stated in recipe. Delicious!)
