Ingredients

Topping

1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon apple pie spice
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar

Filling

3 large Gala or Golden Delicious apples
3 large ripe but firm pears
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Make With

Gold Medal Flour

Steps

1

Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder and apple pie spice. Cut in 1/2 cup butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture looks like rolled oats. Stir in 3 tablespoons granulated sugar and the brown sugar; set aside.
2

Peel and core apples. Cut into quarters, then cut each quarter crosswise in half. Repeat with pears. In 4-quart Dutch oven, combine 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice. Heat over medium heat until butter is melted; stir in apples. Partly cover; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3

Add pears; cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes, depending on ripeness of pears. In small bowl, mix remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice, the cornstarch and cinnamon; add to fruit mixture. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened.
4

Spoon fruit mixture into ungreased 9 1/2-inch glass deep-dish pie plate. Spoon topping evenly over fruit. Place pie plate on cookie sheet.
5

Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until topping is golden brown and fruit is bubbly. Serve warm or cool.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

tip 1
Select heavy lemons, which contain more juice. One medium lemon contains about 3 tablespoons juice, so you will need 2 lemons for this recipe.
