TWD Apple and Pear Crisp

It's time for Tuesday with Dorie! This week I decided to make the Crisp. Em of The Repressed Pastry Chef selected Cran-Apple Crisps on page 422. Here is the link to her blog , if you would like the recipe http://therepressedpastrychef.com/2009/11/10/cran-apple-crisps/#more-1127 Instead of cranberries I added pears with the apples! Before the oven....After....So delicious with the ice cream! The topping was just as incredible as everyone said it was! We really enjoyed it!My husband has been gone a lot lately. He came home late one night with these pretty yellow roses!

What I wouldn't do for the simplicity of a delicious crisp right now, with a side of icecream:D

I love crisps too. On sunday I took the apple/pecan crisp to church for potluck. And...you have a sweet husband.

I thought a side of ice cream was perfect with this crisp. Warm and crunchy alongside cool and creamy. Yum! Such pretty flowers, too...

How sweet of your husband to bring you those roses -- they're gorgeous. Yellow roses are my favorite, they always have been.

On to the crisp, it looks so good! Especially with that lovely scoop of ice cream.

That looks delicious. Thanks for sharing that the topping was really good. Will have to give that a try since I have Dorie's book. I really liked Sweet Melissa's ginger crumble recipe too.

The roses are beautiful. How sweet of your husband to bring you a bunch of them!

I wish I could have made the Crisp - just can't eat it all myself! It looks delish. Beautiful flowers!

Katrina said...

Yum! Pears sound good. Apples aer sometimes just a little too tart for me and I love how sweet pears are.
Pretty flowers!

I love the pear substitution - a perfect flavour combo. And the yellow roses are just lovely!
