BakeAlong: Pear Crumble!

Another bake with these ladies, Lena, Joyce and Zoe

with their

Click > Pear and Maple Crumble < for the recipe!

I did not fancy eating pear and crumble only so decided to have a base for it!

the recipe I used involved melting 250g of unsalted butter in water and sugar;

then add part by part to shifted 1 cup self raising flour, 1 cup all purpose flour thingy

add enough flour to make a pliable dough and then leave in the fridge for 30mins thingy

either I interpreted the recipe wrongly or it was not a good one

(so I won't give the full recipe here)

Above: chopped pears with raisins mixed with the spices and honey (cos I had no maple syrup)

Above: the 3 small pies have apple filling

while the apple pies can be eaten because they are smaller so the dough was done,

as compared to the large pie where while the pears are chunchy

 but I dislike the topping but

the dough was soggy ;(

but I managed to save the situation by toasting slices of it

in the toaster oven before eating!

anyways, bake night was saved by this usual bread 

and I made something with my blender

 hint2: something that after blending, then cooking in a pot over medium heat

the results which will go very well with the next BakeAlong item ~ Scones!
