The pears and apples work so well together in this recipe as they each have a bit of a different texture so there’s a mixture of soft, tender pears with firmer, baked apples. Both pears and apples are equally healthy, rich in vitamins, minerals, and loaded with filling fibre.
This pear and apple crisp is a definite nutritional step-up from your typical run-of-the-mill apple crisp as it contains no refined sugars and has the added benefits of healthy fats and protein.
