Apple Pear Cranberry Awesomeness!

I like fall. And fruit. And impressing people with little effort.

My apple crisp is pretty legit so I figured adding more fall flavor could only make it better.

Apple Pear Cranberry Crisp
3 apples (I used a mixture of Granny Smiths and Jonagolds)
2 ripe pears
2 cups fresh cranberries
3 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1 cup oats
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

preheat oven to 375.
wash and chop apples and pears. rinse and sort cranberries, picking out the wrinkly ones. place fruit into a deep baking dish.
cream butter and sugar in a small mixing bowl. mix in flour, cinnamon and oats until even. 
sprinkle mixture on top of fruit. add nuts on top of oats. 
bake at 375 for 30-45 min. until golden brown on top!
you can eat it right out of the oven. or the next morning for breakfast! 

This is a super easy throw together dessert that is mostly fruit. I made it as a healthier option for the turkey feast! But had it in addition to my pie! :)
