Crumb Topping
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup almonds, chopped
1 tsp lemon zest
1/4 tsp kosher salt
6 Tbsp unsalted butter, at room temp
Filling
2 refrigerated rolled pie crusts
4 (6 oz) containers blackberries
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
4 1/2 lb Bartlett pears (about 10), peeled, cored, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1/2 cup cornstarch
2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp lemon zest
1/2 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a bowl, mix flour, oats, brown sugar, almonds, lemon zest, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Set aside.
Gently unroll and fit pie crusts into two 9-inch pie dishes.
In a large bowl, combine blackberries, pears, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon zest, and salt. Toss well.
Divide filling between pie crusts. Sprinkle crumb topping over each.
Place pies on a baking sheet. Bake 50–60 minutes, or until bubbly and golden. Cover loosely with foil if topping browns too fast.
Cool at least 2 hours before serving.
