Pear Cobbler in your Cast Iron Skillet

I did it! I seasoned my cast iron skillet and made a pear cobbler. Or maybe it’s a crisp? What’s the difference? All I know is there’s lots of pears, brown sugar, and butter in this thing.

This recipe was first shared this pear cobbler over on Instagram, and it received so many saves and re-shares that I knew it needed to have a home here too!

This pear cobbler is an easy, yummy dessert for guests or an after dinner treat. The soft baked pears and crisp topping is a perfect combo.

A few months ago I talked all about the cast iron skillet that was rusting in my kitchen drawer and how I finally decided to dig it out and season it. I waned to attempt to use it for a few reasons: People were raving about it being non-stick, easy to clean, and non-toxic.

I also love how you can start a dish on the stovetop and transfer to the over. Ever use something and wonder what took you so long? That’s me and cast iron.

Don’t have a cast iron? You need one! I’ve had it for over 6 months now and use it daily. I make almost everything in it unless I’m cooking a stew or soup that needs a deeper dish. Here one on Amazon that’s priced well!

But remember, you’ll still need to season it first, even if you purchase it new. Find out how to do that in my post all about it!

This is the recipe I followed (loosely) because I don’t usually measure, just throw stuff in until I think it looks good. Where are my non-measure friend at?
