In addition to apples, pears also make a sweet, smooth sauce when peeled and cooked. By mixing them with apples and raspberries, you can combine three of summer's sweetest fruits in one delicious dish!

4 Servings

¼ cup raspberries

  • Peel and core the apple, removing all seeds and skin. Cut into pieces and put into a saucepan.

  • Peel and core the pear. Cut into slices and add to the saucepan.
