Ginger Apple Pear Crisp


It’s the final day of Fall Flavors Week, and today I’m sharing my Ginger Apple Pear Crisp recipe. This easy fall dessert combines the tartness of Granny Smith apples with sweet Bartlett pears, all topped with a brown sugar and oat crumble that’s perfectly crisp and golden.


What You’ll Need

  • 4 medium tart apples, peeled and sliced

  • 4 medium pears, peeled and sliced

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping:

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • 1/3 cup cold butter, cubed

How to Make It

  1. Prep the Fruit
    In a large bowl, toss the apples, pears, sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, fresh ginger, salt, and vanilla. Transfer to a greased 13x9-inch baking dish.

  2. Make the Topping
    In another bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Cut in the butter until crumbly.

  3. Assemble & Bake
    Sprinkle the topping evenly over the fruit. Bake at 375°F for 40–45 minutes, until the topping is golden and the fruit is tender.

  4. Serve
    Serve warm on its own or with vanilla bean ice cream.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the crisp warm on its own or take it over the top with vanilla bean ice cream and diced candied ginger.

Strawberry Pizzelles

Pizzelles are one of my favorite childhood cookies and I'm constantly looking for ways to put a new spin on them.  Since one of my favorite summer fruits is strawberries, I swapped out the vanilla in the original recipe with strawberry extract. 

Easy Stuffed Waffles with Sweet and Savory Fillings

Stuffed waffles are a fun twist on the classic waffle—crispy on the outside and packed with tasty fillings inside. I recently got a stuffed waffle maker, and I’m loving how it turns waffles into little pockets of deliciousness! The best part? You don’t need a strict recipe because this is a perfect “clean out the fridge” meal. Grab whatever leftovers or fillings you have on hand, stuff ’em inside, and waffle away! Here’s what I tried this time, but feel free to get creative and make it your own.
