APPLE, CRANBERRY, AND PEAR CRISP
This is a variation of the traditional Apple Crisp that I dreamed up one day when I didn't have enough apples, and there were pears in the fruit bowl, and leftover toasted walnuts from something else. We love it. Cranberries can be substituted with raisins or dried cherries. Comice pears taste best with this recipe.

Tips:
- Prep your Fruit: Before you begin, wash and chop your apples, pears, and cranberries. If you're using frozen fruit, thaw it first.
- Choose Sweet Apples: Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, and Braeburn are all great choices for this crisp. They hold their shape well and provide a nice balance of sweetness and tartness.
- Use Fresh Cranberries: While frozen cranberries can be used in a pinch, fresh cranberries give the crisp a brighter, more vibrant flavor.
- Make your own Crisp Topping: The topping for this crisp is simple to make and only requires a few ingredients. You can use a food processor or a fork to combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, and butter.
- Don't Overmix the Crisp Topping: You want the topping to be crumbly, so don't overmix it. If you do, it will become too dense.
- Bake the Crisp Until Golden Brown: The crisp is done baking when the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
- Serve Warm with Vanilla Ice Cream or Whipped Cream: This crisp is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
