Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 400 degrees. In 8" square baking dish, combine pie filling, pears & cranberries. In measuring cup, mix orange juice with cornstarch & nutmeg; pour into baking dish. Gently mix to blend thoroughly. In bowl, mix baking mix, milk, sugar & butter just to blend, spoon onto fruit in 6 equal portions, spacing slightly apart. Sprinkle with sugar & nutmeg mixture.
Bake in center of oven about 45 minutes until fruit is bubbly and biscuit topping is cooked through. Part of the way through baking, lay a sheet of aluminum foil on top to prevent over-browning, if needed.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Accompany with vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt.
