How to Make Apple Pear Crumble

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Lightly grease a 13x9-inch baking pan.
3. Peel, core, and chop 4 medium apples (about 4 cups) and 2 medium pears (about 2 cups).
4. In a large bowl, combine the chopped apples and pears, 1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg. Toss gently to coat.
5. Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly.
6. Topping: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts, 1/4 cup Splenda brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
7. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit mixture.
8. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbly and the topping is golden brown and crisp.
9. Let cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy!
