ITALIAN STYLE AMARETTO-PEACH CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Arrange the peach slices in an 8x8-inch pan or a gratin dish. (NOTE: If you are using frozen peaches, you don't need to defrost them first, but you do need to separate them.) Sprinkle with lemon zest, lemon juice, and Amaretto, if desired.
• Place the amaretti in a food processor and grind into crumbs with a few short bursts. Add the almonds during the last burst or two, so they get broken up but not finely ground. Stir in the optional sugar, if desired. (If you are in need of a little exercise, you can bypass the food processor. Put the cookies in a plastic bag and whack them mercilessly with a rolling pin. Add the almonds and optional sugar, and shake well.)(NOTE: I skip this step. Instead, I just add the cookies to the butter mixture (the cookies will soften in the melted butter/liquids). Mix and crush with a wooden spoon).
• Transfer the cookie mixture to a bowl, pour in the melted butter, and mix with a fork until well combined. Sprinkle the topping over the peaches, patting it into place.
• Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden. Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold, plain or `a la mode.

AMARETTI APPLE CRISP

Steps:

• Place the cornstarch in a very small bowl. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice. Stir in remaining 2 teaspoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar and the almond extract, nutmeg and cloves.
• Add the cornstarch mixture and almonds to the apples, and toss to combine. Cover tightly with microwave plastic wrap. Cook at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 7 minutes, stirring once. Then prick the plastic to release steam.
• Remove from the oven, uncover and set aside. Preheat the broiler.
• Place the butter in a 1-cup glass measure. Cook, uncovered, for 1 minute, then remove from the oven.
• Place the butter, amaretti and remaining brown sugar in a food processor. Process until finely chopped. Sprinkle over the apples, and brown under broiler for about 3 minutes.

EASY BAKED PEARS WITH AMARETTI

Steps:

• Cut each pear in half, then place on a large baking tray. Use a teaspoon to scoop out the cores and make a dip in the centre of each pear. If your pears are firm, you may need to use a sharp knife to do this. Dollop about 1 heaped tsp ricotta into each dip, then sprinkle over the cinnamon and drizzle with a little honey.
• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5, then roast the pears for 10 mins. Tip the biscuits into a food bag and use a rolling pin to lightly crush them. Remove the pears from the oven, then scatter the crumbs over each pear. Return to the oven for another 10 mins or until the pears are soft and the biscuit golden brown. Serve drizzled with honey.

PEAR CRISP

• Filling:Peel, halve, and core pears, then slice into 1/2-inch-thick pieces. Add to a large bowl and toss with lime juice as you work to prevent pears from browning. Toss with sugar, ginger, flour, and salt. Transfer to a 2-quart baking dish. Remove crisp topping from refrigerator and break into small pieces. Scatter evenly over the top. Transfer to oven and bake until bubbly, 50 to 60 minutes (tent top with foil if browning too quickly). Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack 20 minutes before serving with vanilla ice cream. Crisp is best eaten the day it's made, but can be stored, covered, for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
