How to Make Apple And Pear Crisp

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel, core, and chop 4 medium Granny Smith apples and 2 ripe but firm pears into 1-inch chunks.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the chopped apples and pears with the zest and juice of 1 lemon, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. Toss gently to coat.
  4. Pour the fruit mixture into a 9x12x2-inch oval baking dish.
  5. For the topping:
  6. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.
  7. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  8. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit filling, ensuring complete coverage.
  9. Place the baking dish on a baking sheet to catch any spills. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly and tender.
  10. Let cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy!
