How to Make Apple Pear Crisp

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. **Filling:** In a large bowl, gently toss together 4 cups peeled and sliced apples (a mix of Honeycrisp and Granny Smith recommended), 2 cups peeled and sliced pears (Bartlett or Bosc recommended), 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon.
  4. Sprinkle the cornstarch mixture evenly over the fruit and toss gently to coat.
  5. Pour the fruit mixture into a lightly greased 11x7 inch baking dish.
  6. **Streusel Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup rolled oats, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  7. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  8. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the fruit filling.
  9. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbly and the topping is golden brown and crisp.
  10. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional).
