Sweet, tart cranberries and tender ripe pears make a filling that practically perfumes your whole kitchen as it bakes — warm with Ceylon cinnamon, ginger, and a whisper of turmeric that gives the whole thing a subtle golden glow. The topping comes together with cassava flour and shredded coconut, bound by melted coconut oil and maple syrup into those satisfying irregular clumps that turn golden and crisp in the oven. Every ingredient here is grain-free and refined sugar-free, so it genuinely fits an ancestral eating approach without any awkward substitutions or compromises on flavor. Arrowroot starch does the quiet work of thickening the bubbling fruit filling, so you get that jammy, glossy texture that makes a crumble worth eating. Letting it rest for ten minutes after it comes out of the oven is the hardest part — but it's what takes the filling from molten to perfectly scoopable. Serve it straight from the dish and watch it disappear.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish with a small amount of coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pear chunks, cranberries, maple syrup, arrowroot starch, Ceylon cinnamon, ginger, turmeric, and sea salt. Toss until the fruit is evenly coated and the starch is no longer visible as dry powder.
