Notes
This apple pear crisp recipe can be made in a 10-inch skillet or pie plate. If you're using a pie plate, I recommend placing it atop a baking sheet to catch any bubbling fruit juices.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat individual servings in the microwave or pop the whole crisp back into a 350°F oven to bring back that crunchy topping.
