Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an eight-inch-square baking dish.
Spread the pecan pieces on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for six to eight minutes. Combine the toasted pecans with a cup of flour, the brown sugar, salt and cinnamon. Rub the pieces of butter in with your fingertips to make a crumbly mixture. Refrigerate.
Toss the pears with a tablespoon of flour and the granulated sugar. Spread in the baking dish and sprinkle evenly with the topping.
Bake one hour until brown, bubbly and crisp. Serve while still warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
I made this, more or less. I tossed the sliced pears with about 2 t lemon juice, then added the flour and sugar. I used 1/2 c flour and 1/2 c old fashioned oats. I reduced the brown sugar as others noted to 1/2 c. I also lightly sprinkled cinnamon sugar over the pears before topping them with the crumble mixture. Superb!
I made this exactly as per the recipe with only one deviation, as it was wintertime, I used frozen pears (I’d been very dubious about the efficacy of frozen pears) from our prolific pair of pear trees. This is hands down the best crisp recipe I have ever made, and I’ve made dozens of them! It came out bubbly and perfect.
Made exactly as per the recipe, this is the most delicious and perfect pear crisp recipe I have ever made, it’s a permanent keeper!
I had 4 pears, so I cut the recipe in half. Felt like it would overfill a smaller dish, so I still used an 8x8 dish. Took closer to 50 minutes to bake, and I feared it would be soggy. Nope. Perfectly delicious.

This became way too soupy. And too sweet. I think I should have used cornstarch instead of flour and halved the sugar.
Super delicious, but halved the sugar, too
This was delicious. Fortunately I read the comments and cut way back on the sugar (the comice pears I used were very ripe and sweet). Added some nutmeg and cardamom.
It is delicious. I had an abundance of ripe Okanogan pears and tried this recipe. It was a big hit. I'll make it again.
Made with 4 apples and 4 pears. Seems as though if 2 cups total sugar is too much. Next time will use 2/3- 3/4 c instead.
