Apple Pear Crumble

You can make this crumble with almost any fruit, using similar quantities and adjusting for sweetness. Serve it warm, in shallow bowls. I found this recipe in Yankee magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting this for safe keeping. I plan to use sugar free maple syrup, and Splenda brown sugar.

• Ready In: 55 mins
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 3  medium baking apples, peeled and thinly sliced (such as Braeburn or Empire)
• 3  medium  ripe pears, peeled and thinly sliced (such as Bosc)
• 1⁄4 cup pure maple syrup
• 1  teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

• Topping

• 1⁄2 cup whole wheat flour
• 1⁄2 cup old fashioned oats
• 1⁄3 cup  finely chopped walnuts
• 2  tablespoons butter or 2  tablespoons margarine, softened
• 2  tablespoons light brown sugar
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a 13x9-inch baking pan. In a large bowl, mix apples, pears, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly.
2. Topping: In a small bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the fruit mixture. Bake until the fruit is tender and the topping is golden, 40-45 minutes. Let cool until just warm, then serve.
