Ingredients

2 medium apples peeled, cored and thinly sliced
2 medium pears peeled, cored and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
¼ cup sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt

topping

½ cup all-purpose flour
⅓ cup old fashioned rolled oats
½ cup light brown sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
½ cup butter see note
½ cup chopped raw pecans
½ cup chopped raw walnuts

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F and spray a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Add the apples and pears to a medium bowl. Stir in the lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to coat each piece of fruit. Transfer fruit to the prepared loaf pan and spread the slices evenly in the pan.
To make the topping, stir together the flour, oats, and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Add the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Add the butter and work the topping with a fork until well mixed. Stir in the nuts.
Pour the topping over the fruit and spread evenly in the pan. Bake for 30 minutes, until the apples and pears are tender and the topping is browned. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For a crumbly topping, use cold, cubed butter and use a fork or finger tips to work the butter into little pieces, dispersed throughout the topping.

For a crunchy topping, use melted butter. Use fork to mix thoroughly into dry ingredients.
