Pear Crisp
This one takes more than 30 minutes but is worth the extra time. It can easily be done with *sub your favorite fruit here.* I always make these with a riff on a shortbread cookie for the crust. My favorite trick to make these just a little bit healthier is to use really ripe fruit because then you don’t need to add any sugar to the fruit.
