directions
Note: Be sure to used powdered stevia and not stevia with added fiber - that's a different product.
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart casserole or an 8-by9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Add pears and blueberries to pan and mix.
2. Sprinkle 1 tsp. stevia, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and ginger over fruit, then add water. Mix gently to distribute. Sprinkle fruit with sliced almonds.
3. Prepare topping. Use a pastry blender or fork to mix oatmeal, flour, cinnamon, and remaining 3/4 tsp. stevia. Blend in butter until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle topping over fruit and almonds.
4. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 40 to 45 minutes, or until crisp is bubbling at edges and pears are soft when pierced with a fork. Serve warm or at room temperature.
