Ingredients
- 2 large ripe pears, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 14 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 15-ounce cans pumpkin puree
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup walnut pieces
Directions
- In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, combine pears, 4 tablespoons of butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and spices and cook until the pears are tender, 9 to 10 minutes. Add pumpkin and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Place the flour, brown sugar, and remaining butter in a bowl. With your fingers, work the butter into the dry ingredients until large crumbs form. Add the walnuts and combine well.
