Great recipe! I was able to use the last of my pears, but instead of cranberries (which I didn't have) I used cherries. Outstanding!

Absolutely yummy on a nice cold evening. The ground walnuts added a nice touch to the topping. We added icecream on top for a family favorite!

YUMMY!! I made this and brought it to friends as a casual dessert and everyone loved it. I followed the recipe, but added a tsp of cinnamon to the crisp. This recipe is excellent... great flavor. I will being make this one again and again!

I love this recipe! I have made this several times following the recipe exactly and it is always great. The last time I made it I substituted Pomegranate for the cranberries and it was really good. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, yummy!

Out of this world! The apples, pears and dried cranberries are a wonderful combination and the nuts add a great crunch to the topping. I added cinnamon and nutmeg to the fruit and made 1.5 times the amount of topping called for. It was perfect!

This was a great twist! We had some fresh golden delicious apples from our local orchard, so I used 4 of those instead of 2. Two Bartlett pears, and a little over 1/4 cup of sweetened dried cranberries. I can't do butter, so I added a teaspoon of imitation butter flavoring and 3 spoonfuls of melted Crisco to make the topping instead. Sprinkled cinnamon generously over the top & baked in an 11"x7" glass dish for just under 40 minutes. Very nice taste! Served it with frozen cool whip lite (can't do ice cream either) - it was a hit! Thx for the great recipe - I'd have never thought to use honey in this way!

Nice combination - I like the different textures of apple and pear (I used Granny Smith and D'Anjou because that's what I had). Needs some spices, though, cinnamon, nutmeg or a combination. I've tweaked this several times and my favorite included cinnamon in the topping, pecans instead of walnuts and I used fresh cranberries, not dried. I spiced & sweetened them up by simmering 1 cup cranberries in about 3/4 cup water, the honey and a cinnamon stick and a couple strips of orange peel studded with whole cloves. Stirred that mixture (removing stick, peel & cloves) in with the apples and pears.

I've been making crisps for years, trying to find a good mix of fruit and topping. Many in the past either had too much fruit for the topping, or the topping didn't actually form a crust on top. But this one was absolutely awesome! No-fuss, soo easy, and my boyfriend and I absolutely loved it - hot or cold! I'm allergic to cranberries, and didn't have any cherries on hand, so I used frozen blueberries instead along with Bosch pears and some gala apples I had. As well, I added a teaspoon of cinnamon to the topping mix (crisp isn't crisp without that cinnamon taste!) Wonderful. The blueberries turned all the fruit vaguely purple, but it still tasted amazing! A definite keeper! Thank you so much!

I have used this recipe several times and have received numerous requests for the recipe. At times, when Rome apples were not available, I used Courtland and Macoun. I have also used Bartlett pears. This is a great recipe and wonderful with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!
