Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the pears by peeling and slicing about six ripe pears into thin wedges. Toss them with granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice until well coated.
Mix the topping ingredients, combining rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and cold butter until crumbly.
Layer the pears in a greased baking dish and sprinkle the oat mixture on top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes until topping is golden brown and pears are tender.
Cool slightly before serving; optionally serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
