Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray pan with cooking spray. In small bowl, combine oats, sugar, flour and spice. Mix well.

Cut in spread with pastry cutter until mixture is crumbly. Stir in almonds and set aside.

Cut pears in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon, remove center portion of each pear half.
