Ingredients for Autumn Fruit Crisp

  • Granulated Sugar
  • All Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon anise seeds
  • Ground Ginger
  • ½ cup (113g) cold unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 medium apples (peeled, cored, and sliced)
  • 2 medium pears (peeled, cored, and sliced)
  • 1 cup (100g) fresh or frozen cranberries

How to Make Autumn Fruit Crisp

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar, ½ cup (60g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon anise seeds, and 1 teaspoon ground ginger until well combined.
  3. Cut in ½ cup (113g) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, combine ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  5. In a large bowl, gently toss together 4 medium apples (peeled, cored, and sliced), 2 medium pears (peeled, cored, and sliced), and 1 cup (100g) fresh or frozen cranberries with the sugar-cornstarch-cinnamon mixture.
  6. Pour the fruit mixture into a 10-inch round baking dish (approximately 2-inch deep).
  7. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit.
  8. Place the baking dish on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake for 65-75 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  9. Remove from oven and let stand for 10-15 minutes before serving warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or frozen yogurt.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
