Steps
Wash & dry all produce. Dice pear & rhubarb into cubes. Make sure to remove leaves from rhubarb prior to dicing - the leaves are poisonous.
Preheat oven to 375 [F] degrees.
Melt butter.
In a bowl, mix together all ingredients for your topping. Use a fork to break up any large clumps of topping - you want it crumbly. Set in fridge while you make the filling.
In a 9 square-inch baking dish, combine fruit filling ingredients together. Make sure to softly mix the fruit together as the raspberries are delicate & can break easily. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
Using your hands, cover the fruit with a thick layer of the crumble topping. Make sure to use all of the topping & that not fruit is left uncovered.
Bake for 40 minutes or until the topping is golden brown & the fruit is bubbling to the surface.
Let cool & serve with your choice of ice cream.
