Full of fall fruit and autumnal spices, the best way to enjoy this apple-pear crisp is warm, right out of the oven. To ensure plenty of "oohs" and "ahhs," top each serving with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a sprinkle of freshly grated cinnamon.
Ingredients

- 4 medium pears, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup sugar

- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

The mix of tart apples and ripe pears creates an irresistible fall crisp, blanketed with a perfectly spiced and buttery oat topping. We like it warm from the oven with a spoonful of whipped cream. —Holly Battiste, Barrington, New Jersey
