Warm apple and pear crisp is comforting and delicious, especially with ice cream!
Ingredients
Filling:
3 large honeycrisp apples, thinly sliced*
3 ripe but firm medium pears, thinly sliced**
40g (1/4 cup) white whole wheat flour
50g (1/4 cup) granulated sugar
2g (1 teaspoon) ground cinnamon
Topping:
80g (1/2 cup) white whole wheat flour
115g (1/2 cup, tightly packed) brown sugar (light or dark)
1g (1/2 teaspoon) ground cinnamon
71g (5 tablespoons) unsalted butter, chilled
Instructions
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
Make filling:
Place apples and pears into a large mixing bowl
Stir in the flour, sugar, and cinnamon until all fruit is coated
Spread out the filling in a 9×9 pan or baking dish
Make topping:
Cut your butter into the mixture of brown sugar, flour and cinnamon
Use fingers to combine until you are left with small lumps and pour it over the apples
Bake for about 50-60 minutes or until fruit is tender and bubbling and the topping is browned
Allow to cool for a few minutes and then serve topped with ice cream and or whipped cream
Notes
*honeycrisp worked really well, a mixture of braeburn and granny smith would be good for a sweet and tart combination; peeling optional **I used bartlett but bosc would also work; peeling optional
