Any fruit crisp!
So, not only is it any fruit,
I think what's also so great about this recipe is
you can use fresh fruit fruit for this recipe,
but also frozen fruit.
So it's like, you know, it's very easy.
You can use any fruits that you love and that you like.
I tend to have a lot of apples in the house
and we had a lot left, so I just, you know,
cut up some apples, just like that.
And then I also added some pears.
So what I'm going to do to this,
is I'm going to add some sugar, right?
Add some sugar in there.
And then I'm going to add some corn starch
because as we know that once the pears and the apples,
they cook down,
they kind of give off a liquid.
So I want to make sure that liquid is nice and thick.
It creates a nice sauce.
Yep.
And then I'm just gonna toss, you know,
all of this together
so that everything is fully combined here.
And then I am just going to put it into a greased baking
pan that I have. Okay.
So next, what we're going to do,
and I think this is a great, great tip, Rachel.
I think you're going to be excited about this.
So you know how we always have a lot of cranberry sauce
leftover during the holidays.
Yes! So what I like to do,
Oh this is brilliant! I love it!
I'm stomping on my feet.
(laughing)
Yay!
So I just like to just, you know, dollop, you know,
a little bit on top here.
And this is a great way,
Oh beautiful, it's like a giant compote. I love it!
Pears and apples and cranberries. How beautiful?
Aw, thank you.
And you see how this is like, again,
this is so incredibly easy.
I'm just dumping all of these great ingredients
into this pan here. Okay.
So then next what I'm going to do
is I'm going to work on my topping.
Now, one thing that I love about this topping
is it's very versatile, right?
You can use this topping for pies.
I like to use them also, on top of my blueberry muffins.
And I have a great recipe in my cookbook, as well.
But so these are old fashioned rolled oats here. Right?
And I'm just going to make a
Crumble? Yes,
so I'm just going to make a crumble.
So I'm going to add some flour
and then I'm going to add some brown sugar.
And then I'm just going to add a pinch of salt here.
Oh I love that.
A little bit of salt makes all the difference.
Oh my gosh. Yes!
And then I'm going to add some melted butter,
just like this.
And then I like to get my hands, you know, dirty.
Of course.
This is where you have the kids.
Yes! And the kids, they love this, right?
So I just like to just, you know,
kind of create a nice crumble here, right?
And this is going to be so delicious on top,
on top of the fruit.
This is so easy, it's almost ridiculous.
Right?
Rachel, people don't believe me,
when I say that all of the recipes in my cookbook,
it's like easy. You know what I mean?
I don't want people to feel overwhelmed in the kitchen
or think that they can't do it. You can, you totally can.
And it's a lot of fun. Okay.
So, basically what I'm going to do is I'm just gonna,
just place this on top.
Yep. Just like that.
And you don't have to like, you know, cover it up
cause you want to see the fruits peeping through.
It's so versatile. It's so clever. So clever.
Yes. Thank you so much.
So now what I'm going to do is I'm just going to throw this
into the oven at 425 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes, right?
So beautiful do you see how beautiful this is?
Yes. And it's so like, look at that, it's so quick and easy.
And it's only in the oven, half an hour. It's brilliant.
Yes.
This is what it looks like when you take it out of the oven,
just like that. Gorgeous.
Do you see how round it is?
And then you could see the fruit peeking through.
So what I like to do is,
I like to eat it with some ice cream.
So we're just going to scoop some on just like that.
Look at how pretty!
And then I'm just going to add some ice cream on top.
Oh and I love when the ice cream
With some whipped cream, if you want.
Oh and when the ice cream just starts to melt
a little bit on the warm fruit.
Oh, please.
Gorgeous.
(laughing)
I'm so happy for you.
