serves 4
ingredients
100g/4oz rolled oats
50g/2oz butter, melted
2 tablespoons chopped almonds
1 tablespoon clear honey
pinch of ground cinnamon
2 dessert pears
1 tablespoon marmalade

• Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas mark 6. Lightly oil the bottoms
of four individual pudding bowls, and line each one with a small circle
of baking parchment.
• Mix together the oats, butter, almonds, honey and cinnamon in a small
bowl. Using a spoon, spread two-thirds of the oat mixture over the base
and around the sides of the pudding bowls.
• Peel, core and finely chop the pears. Toss together with the marmalade,
and spoon into the oat cases. Scatter the remaining oat mixture over to
cover the pears and marmalade.
• Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden and crisp. Leave for 5 minutes
before removing the pudding bowls. Serve hot with custard or yogurt.
