Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Toss 15g of the butter with the pears and 25g sugar in a 20 x 30cm baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 30 mins until the pears are soft. Remove from the oven and gently stir in the raspberries.
  2. Meanwhile, make the crumble topping. Rub the remaining 110g butter into the flour in a large mixing bowl until it resembles coarse sand. Stir in the remaining sugar, the oats and marzipan. Scatter thickly over the fruit, then bake in the centre of the oven for 35-40 mins until golden and bubbling at the edges. Leave to rest for 10 mins before serving with ice cream, if you like.
