Pear and Strawberry Crisp
Author: kevin
This is just another rendition of my grandma’s Apple Crisp, but with my favorite fruit, strawberries and an addition of some firm pairs. I have found that by adding all off the dry ingredients in a bowl and then beat in the egg, it makes for a more crumbly mixture. Before I would beat the egg and sugar then add the dry ingredients and the outcome was a pasty, doughy mixture I had to break apart to crumble over the top of the fruit. The added oats makes it additionally crunchy.
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1tsp baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 pears, cored and chopped into 1″ chunks
- 1 basket of strawberries, each sliced in half
- 1/3 cup of butter
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Preheat oven to 400˚. Peel, core and slice the apples into bite size pieces. Place in a greased 13″ x 9″ baking pan.
In a mixing bowl beat the flour, sugar, egg, vanilla and baking soda until it becomes a crumbled mixture. Sprinkle this mixture over the apples. Melt the butter, drizzle over the top and sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake for 40 minutes.
