I saw this recipe on a cooking show and came up with my own version. When the comforting aroma of this homey dessert drifts through the house, it’s hard not to take a quick peek inside the slow cooker
Ingredients
2 cans (15 ounces each) sliced pears, drained
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
1/4 cup old-fashioned oats
1/4 cup sliced almonds
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
vanilla ice cream, optional
Directions
In a greased 5-qt. slow cooker, combine pears and pie filling; stir in extract. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, oats, almonds and brown sugar; stir in melted butter. Sprinkle over fruit.
Cook, covered, on low until topping is golden brown, 3-4 hours. If desired, serve with ice cream.
