Lazy Fruit Crisp
It’s probably obvious by now that apples and pears are among my favorites to use in desserts. Nothing is as comforting as warm fruit spiced by cinnamon and paired with a buttery crust. I wanted to serve dessert but didn’t have a lot of time to make it, so I decided to make a crisp. This recipe is “lazy” because it comes together with minimal effort. Just chop the apple and pear (no peeling required), stir together the crisp from on-hand ingredients, and then bake until the fruit is soft and everything melds together. Of course, we ate ours with ice cream. Enjoy!
