Method

Fruit Filling Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fruit

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Core and slice the apples and pears into thin wedges or cubes. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples and pears with granulated sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss well to coat the fruit evenly.

  2. 2

    Place in Baking Dish

    Transfer the fruit mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Crumb Topping Preparation

  1. 3

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a separate mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and salt. Stir until well combined.

  2. 4

    Add Butter and Pecans

    Melt the butter and pour it over the dry mixture. Add the chopped pecans. Use a fork or your fingers to mix until the crumb topping resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. 5

    Top the Fruit

    Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish.

Baking and Serving

  1. 6

    Bake

    Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
