Ingredients

• 1 medium Apple or pear
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1.5 tablespoons Rolled oats
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for topping)
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter (cold)
• 1 scoop Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small ramekin or oven-safe dish and set aside.

Step 2

Peel and core the apple or pear, then slice it into thin, even slices or small cubes.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, toss the fruit slices with granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice until evenly coated. Transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared ramekin, spreading it out evenly.

Step 4

In another small bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon for the topping.

Step 5

Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes, then add it to the dry topping mixture. Using a fork or your fingers, gently work the butter into the mixture until crumbly and resembling coarse sand.

Step 6

Sprinkle the topping evenly over the fruit in the ramekin, covering the fruit completely.

Step 7

Place the ramekin on a baking sheet to catch any spills and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling around the edges.

Step 8

Carefully remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Optionally, top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence. Enjoy your Apple or Pear Crisp for One!
