• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
• 4 medium pears - peeled, cored, and sliced

• ⅓ cup white chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons butterscotch schnapps
• ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix schnapps, white sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger together in a large bowl until sugar dissolves. Add pears and cranberries and toss until fruit is completely coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9-inch square baking dish.

Step 3

Combine oats, flour, brown sugar, cold butter, remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt in a food processor. Pulse until mixture forms large crumbles. Fold in white chocolate chips.

Step 4

Pour chilled fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish, leaving approximately 3/4 inch at the top. Sprinkle crumb mixture over the fruit, covering completely.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until brown and bubbly, about 45 minutes.
