Introduction

This is apple pear blueberry crisp with a crunchy crust and a streusel topping. I made it with real butter and brown sugar though it could easily be made a bit lower in fat and sugar by reducing these. Substitutions could also be made by using almond meal and wheat germ in place of whole wheat flour and it would still be tasty! Enjoy!

Ingredients

    4 large apples, PEEL ON, chopped to bite-size pieces
    4 large pears, PEEL ON, chopped to bite-size pieces
    2 tablespoons lemon juice to prevent discloration

    Crust:
    1/4 cup melted butter
    1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup
    1 cup oatmeal
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1 cup flour
    1/4 cup wheat germ

    Sauce for fruit
    2 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
    2 teaspoons ground ginger
    1/2 cup apple juice
    1 tablespoon flour
    1/2 cup hot water

    Fruity deliciousness:
    1-15 oz can blueberries, drained (only brand I know is Oregon, could substitute 3/4 cup dried blueberries or cranberries)

    Streusel/Crisp Topping:
    2 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
    1 cup oatmeal
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1 cup flour
    1/4 cup wheat germ
    1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, whatever)
    1/2 cup ice cold chopped butter

Directions

Chop apples and pears. I'm slow at this so it takes awhile. I do this first to get it out of the way. Toss with lemon juice.

Preheat oven to 425* F

Melt butter and mix in syrup. Mix dry ingredients for crust. Slowly add in butter and syrup. Press into 9'x13' pan. Bake 15 minutes or until edges are just beginning to brown. Remove from oven when done and LOWER OVEN TEMPERATURE to 350* F.

In the meantime, combine ONLY first 3 ingredients and bring to boil. Blend in flour avoiding lumps. Once blended, slowly add water. Pour over apples and pears and coat evenly.

Be sure that you have LOWERED OVEN TEMPERATURE to 350* F. Pour apples and pears over the crust and spread evenly. Add blueberries and spread evenly.

Mix dry ingredients for topping. Cut in cold butter. Spread over top of fruit. Bake for 60 minutes or until apples and pears are to desired doneness. If it gets too browned, cover with foil to protect streusel topping.

Serve with whipped topping!!
