Apple Pear Crumble

A warm fruit crumble à la mode is absolutely one of my favorite desserts of all time, and I’m pretty sure this one just moved to the top of the list 🍎🍐

Ingredients

• For the filling
• 2 Pink Lady apples, peeled + sliced
• 3 small Bartlett pears, peeled + sliced
• 50g brown sugar (about ¼ cup)
• 1½ tsp cinnamon
• For the crumble
• 100g cold butter, cubed (7 tbsp)
• 100g all-purpose flour (about ¾ cup + 1 tbsp)
• 60g rolled oats (about ⅔ cup)
• 35g brown sugar (about 3 tbsp)
• 50g granulated sugar (¼ cup)
• For serving
• Vanilla bean ice cream
• Homemade whipped cream

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. Add the apples, pears, brown sugar and cinnamon to a saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, just until the fruit begins to soften. You don’t want it completely soft yet since it’ll keep cooking in the oven.

3. Transfer the fruit to an 8x8 baking dish and spread it into an even layer.

4. For the crumble, mix the flour, oats, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Add the cold cubed butter and use your fingertips to rub it into the dry ingredients until you have a crumbly mixture with some bigger chunks.

5. Sprinkle it generously over the fruit without packing it down.

6. Bake at 350°F for about 25 minutes, or until the top is golden and the fruit is bubbling around the edges. Let it cool for about 10 minutes.

7. Serve it warm with vanilla bean ice cream and, if you really want to commit to the situation, pumpkin spice whipped cream.
