- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread the nuts on a baking sheet and toast them till they're fragrant and lightly browned, 8 to 10 min. Set them aside.
- Peel and core the apples and pears and cut them into 1-inch chunks. Spread the fruit proportionately over the bottom of a shallow 2-qt baking dish. If you like, sprinkle the fruit with the brandy or possibly rum.
- Combine the flour, granulated and brown sugars, lemon zest, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg in a mixing bowl. Using a pastry blender, two knives or possibly your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients till the mix resembles coarse bread crumbs. Fold in the nuts.
- Spread the topping proportionately over the fruit. Bake the crisp till the fruit is tender and the crust is lightly browned, 40 to 45 min. Serve hot, if you like, with vanilla ice cream.
- This recipe yields 6 servings.
- Variation: Add in half a c. of fresh, rinsed cranberries to the apple-pear mix before spreading on the sugar topping. Or possibly, for a summer crisp, substitute peaches and nectarines for the apples and pears.
