6 Co-op Conference pears, peeled, cored and cut into chunky slices
340g Co-op frozen summer fruits
90g Co-op Fairtrade light brown soft sugar
Juice of 1 lemon
90g Co-op plain flour
70g porridge oats
1 tsp ground cinnamon
90g Co-op unsalted butter, chopped into pieces

Method
Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan 180°C/ Gas 6.
Toss the fruit with 40g of the sugar and the lemon juice, then tip into a pie dish and press down.
For the crumble, mix the flour, oats, cinnamon and remaining sugar in a bowl.
Using your fingertips, rub in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs, then toss through the nuts.
Sprinkle over the fruit, then bake for 35-40 mins, or until the top is dark golden and bubbling. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream.
