Directions

Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius
In your Pumpkin Dutch Oven, add your chopped apples and pears along with the spices, flour, maple syrup and vanilla, then mix until well combined and set aside.
In a large bowl add off all the Crumble ingredients and using your fingertips rub the butter into the dry ingredients until it comes together to form a nice crumbly texture.
Add the crumble mixture to the top of your apples and pears, and place into the oven to cook for about 30-40 minutes or until the fruit is just tender and the top is golden.If you find your crumble is browning too quickly on the top, you can place the lid of the dutch oven on to prevent it from browning further. Then take off for the last 5 minutes to allow the top to become nice and golden and crispy.
Top with your favourite ice cream and an extra drizzle of maple syrup and enjoy this delicious comforting and wholesome dessert!
