Ingredients

4-5 Granny Smith apples, peel, core and slice
3 Bartlett pears, peel and slice
½ cup walnuts, chopped
1 cup granulated sugar
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ stick butter
2 cups all purpose flour, unsifted
1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
1 cup butter, 2 sticks

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and brown sugar. Add 1 cup of butter and mix on low speed until crumbly.
In a medium bowl, whisk sugar, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon together and set aside.
Peel, core and slice apples and pears. Put in a large bowl, add walnuts.
Mix in sugar mixture and stir until all fruit and walnuts are coated well.
Pour fruit mixture into a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
Add the remaining ¼ cup butter (sliced) and just place on top of the fruit mixture randomly.
Add the flour mixture on top of fruit and spread evenly.
Bake uncovered at 400° for 45-55 minutes.
Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

Slice your apples and pears to roughly the same thickness for even baking.

Save some time and buy chopped walnuts instead of chopping your own.

Spoon your flour loosely into your measuring cup and level it with the flat of a knife to avoid using too much.

Mix the sugar, cinnamon, and fruit first so they can macerate a bit as you make the rest of the crisp.
