Pear-Pecan Crisp With Lemon Sauce

• 5 cups sliced peeled ripe pears (about 5 medium)
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2/3 cup old-fashioned oats
• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup cold butter
• 1/3 cup chopped pecans
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 large egg yolk, beaten
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon grated lemon zest

1. Place pears in a greased 8-in. cast-iron skillet or 8-in. square baking dish; sprinkle with sugar. In a small bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; stir in pecans. Sprinkle over pears. Bake at 350u0b0 for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly.
2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.
3. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolk; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat; stir in the butter, lemon juice and zest. Serve with warm pear crisp.
