Super quick treat! And great when you have a lot of pears as we did. I swapped the applesauce out for oil as i made this the night before and i figured the applesauce in the topping would hold over better, and then for cranberries my little kids don't like tart taste too much so i used dried cranberries. Everyone enjoyed it!
This recipe is such a great combination of tart and sweet flavors! What a great treat! I found that there really isn't any need to add the cornstarch. Also, depending on your oven, it may take up to 45 minutes to cook.
