Transfer to the oven and roast until pears are tender and beginning to brown at the edges, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature.
• While the pears cool, make the streusel: In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, brown sugar, flour and cinnamon to combine. Add the cubes of cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the other ingredients until the mixture becomes clumpy. Stir in the almonds. Set aside.

Add the eggs one at a time and mix well to incorporate after each addition, scraping the bowl as necessary. Beat in the almond extract if using.
• With the speed on low, gently add in half the flour mixture and mix until incorporated.

Let cool for 20 minutes in the pan, then unmold onto a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
