Apple and Pear Crisp

Serves: Serves 8

Prep Time: 20 Minutes

Ingredients

  • For the Topping:
  • 1/2 cup plain flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup SPLENDA® Granular
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 pinch nutmeg
  • 4 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • For the Filling:
  • 4 large green apples
  • 3 Bartlett or Anjou pears
  • 2 tablespoons SPLENDA® Granular
  • 3 tablespoons apple juice concentrate

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly butter a deep 2 to 2 1/2 quart baking dish. Set aside.

To prepare topping: Pour flour, brown sugar, SPLENDA® Granular, cinnamon and nutmeg into a medium mixing bowl. Stir well. Add butter and mix with an electric mixer, using the paddle attachment, until the topping is crumbly or sandy in texture. Set aside.

To prepare filling: Peel, core and thickly slice the apples and pears. Place them in the buttered baking dish. The fruit should be at least 2 1/2 inches deep in the pan. Add more fruit, if necessary. Add SPLENDA® Granular and apple juice concentrate. Toss until coated. Cover with the topping.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until fruit is tender and the topping has browned.
