Served this for Thanksgiving this year and it was a hit. Warm soft fruit with a crispy crunchy topping. A perfect way to celebrate the best of fall's bounty in a comforting but enlightened dessert.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Prepare an 11 by 7 baking or casserole dish with a light coating of cooking spray.
- Squeeze the juice of a half lemon in to a large bowl and add water. This will help keep the peel fruit from browning while you are peeling and cutting.
- Peel and core the fruit. Slice into thinnish slices, suggestion is to cut the pears in eighths and the apples in tenths. As you are cutting place the fruit in the bowl of water and juice.
- Mix together the remaining ingredients for the fruit layer in a small bowl. Drain the fruit and pour in the prepared baking pan. Toss together with the sugar and spice mixture.
- In a medium bowl, combine the dry ingredients, flour through cinnamon.
- Cut the butter into small cubes or slices into the bowl and mix with a fork breaking up the butter into small mini pea sized bits. (I find it easiest to do this by hand.) At the end, you will have a very fine crumb.
- Add in the two tablespoons of pear puree and mix, the size of the crumbs will grow now with additional moisture.
- Sprinkle the crumb coating across the top of the apples and pears.
- Bake for 45 minutes until th fruit is bubbly and the top is crisped and browned. Actual cooking time will vary according to the thinness f the slices. Check about 5 minutes before the stated cooking time.
- Serve warm or cold.

APPLE PEAR CRISP
The fruit is tender and moist, and the crunchy topping is not overly sweet in this dish. While delicious alone, this apple pear crisp is even more delightful when served with vanilla ice cream. -Ron Slivon, Surprise, Arizona

Tips:
