2 red or purple plums, pitted and cut into 1/4-inch wedges
1 firm ripe pear, cored and cut into 1/4-inch wedges
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar, divided use
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger or 2 teaspoons ground ginger, divided use
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup Quaker® Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons 70% vegetable oil spread, chilled, cut into pieces
2/3 cup low-fat milk
