This one is YUMMY. I usually break it down into 6-8 servings instead of four. Perfectly suitable as a carb portion.

Microwave Apple and Pear Crisp
(4 servings)

Ingredients:
- 2 Empire or other firm apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 2 pears, cored and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
- 1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 3 T. all-purpose flour or ground oatmeal
- 1 t. cinnamon
- 1/4 t. grated nutmeg
- 4 t. cold reduced-calorie margarine, diced

Directions:
1. Spray a 9" square microwavable baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.

2. Place the apples and pears in the pan; with a vented cover, microwave on High, stirring once, until the fruit is tender-crisp, around 6 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the oatmeal, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in the margarine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle evenly over the fruit mixture.

4. Microwave on High, uncovered, until the fruit is tender and the topping is cooked, about 6 minutes.
